Abstract

In 2005, 45,520 motor vehicle-related deaths occurred in the United States. A Healthy People 2010 objective calls for reducing the rate of motor vehicle-related deaths to 9.2 per 100,000 population from a baseline of 15.6 in 1998. To assess progress toward this objective and to examine characteristics of motor vehicle-related death rates, CDC analyzed data for the period 1999--2005 and found that death rates varied widely among U.S. regions and states, ranging from 7.9 in Massachusetts to 31.9 in Mississippi.
