摘要：	In 2000, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administrations (FMCSA) regulatory responsibilities were extended to buses with seating for nine or more occupants, including the driver, transported for compensation. FMCSA has also begun supporting data collection on buses involved in fatal crashes, to enhance information on the buses involved and the motor carriers that operate them. In response, the Transportation Safety Analysis Division at the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI) initiated the Buses Involved in Fatal Accidents (BIFA) project to collect much more detailed information about buses involved in fatal crashes. The present study focuses on factors associated with fatal bus crashes involving different bus operator types. Five different carrier types are identified: School, transit, intercity, charter/tour, and other bus operators.
