The objective of this report by the National Center for Statistics and Analysis (NCSA) was to examine the early assessment of fatalities and injuries in motor vehicle crashes for 2002. Data was compared between 2001 and 2002. Based on the National Highway Traffic Administrations FARS (Fatality Analysis Reporting System) data file, and the NASS (National Automotive Sampling System) General Estimates System, Early Assessment estimates indicated that approximately 42,850 persons died and an additional 2,914,000 persons were injured on U.S. public roads and highways in the calendar year 2002. This report will contrast estimates for 2002 with Annual Report numbers for 2001. Early Assessment estimates are based on the best data currently available. This data is incomplete or preliminary at this time and will be superceded when the Annual Report Files become available. At that time a broader range of fatality and injury statistics will be reported. 17. Key Words motor vehicle crashes, fatalities, injuries, fars, ges, early assessment, estimates 18.
