Drivers in the United States totaled 192.7 million persons in 2002, or about 89% of the 215.5 million U.S. residents age 16 or older. Approximately 16.8 million, or 8.7%, of those drivers were stopped by police at least once that year. These traffic stops include stops of all kinds of motor vehicles motorcycles, buses, and private and commercial cars and trucks and both personal and business travel. These findings come from the 2002 Police-Public Contact Survey (PPCS).
