摘要: This report is an investigation into the safety profile work-related trucks which includes dump, garbage/refuse, tow/wrecker, cement mixer, utility, and many other single unit vocational trucks. Statistics are presented comparing work trucks to tractor semitrailers, straight truck vans, and passenger cars. Five years (1997-2000, 2002) of fatal crash counts are taken from the Trucks Involved in Fatal Accidents database. Fatal crash counts in 2002 for passenger cars are derived from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System data file. Vehicle traveled (VMT) data for trucks are taken from the 2002 Vehicle Inventory and Use Survey, while VMT data for passenger cars are derived from reports published by the Federal Highway Administration. Crash involvement rates per 100 million VMT are calculated and compared among different vehicle types. In addition, fatal crash statistics are presented comparing work trucks, straight truck vans, tractor semitrailers, and passenger cars with respect to road and environment characteristics, vehicle characteristics, and driver characteristics.
