This report was prepared as part of the June 1994 Departmental Rail-Highway Crossing Safety Action Plan. Initiative V.B, Data and Research--Demographics, called for a study describing the circumstances under which fatal rail crossing crashes occur and the characteristics of the drivers involved in such crashes. This report describes fatal motor vehicle rail crossing crashes and compares them with all other fatal crashes, as well as with other fatal crashes occurring at intersections. Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA's) Fatal Accident Reporting System, supplemented with information from Claritas, a commercially available geodemographic database, were used to provide the descriptive statistics.
