The purpose of this report is to provide the structure and data necessary to periodically monitor and assess U.S. traffic accident experience. The creation of this 'First Annual Highway Safety Traffic Trend Report' has provided a basis for evaluating historical trends in U.S. traffic safety experience and for reporting on the results of analysis and projections on an annually updated basis. The structure of the report is oriented toward evaluating how accident trends change over time and how various underlying sources for this change (commonly referred to as 'exposure variables') contribute to the explanation of this change. Examples of these sources of change are: shifts to smaller cars, increases in older drivers, and travel shifts related to migration to the 'Sunbelt' states.
