This document presents aggregate statistics on trucks and buses involved in traffic accidents in 1994. These statistics are derived from four sources: accident statistics reported through the SafetyNet data system operated by the Federal Highway Administration's Office of Motor Carriers; the General Estimates System file maintained by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA); the Fatal Accident Reporting System, also maintained by NHTSA; and the Trucks Involved Fatal Accidents file complied by the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute. All accidents reported on herein meet the SafetyNet severity threshold of either a fatality, and injured person transported from the scene for medical attention, or at least one vehicle towed from the scene as a result of disabling damage sustained in the accident. An estimated 151,000 trucks and 16,000 buses were involved in traffic accidents in 1994. There were 5,501 fatalities and 110,000 nonfatal injuries in accidents involving trucks. 289 persons were killed in bus accidents and 24,000 were injured. 584 truck drivers received fatal injuries as a result of traffic accidents.
