The report contains a series of distributions of variables from UMTRI's file of Trucks involved in Fatal Accidents, 1991. This file combines the coverage of the Fatal Accident Reporting System (FARS) data with the detail of the Office of Motor Carrier (OMC) data. When no OMC report existed for a medium or heavy truck listed by GARS, UMTRI conducted a telephone interview to obtain the desired information on ownership, type of trip, vehicle configuration, cargo weights, and lengths. The 1991 TIFA dataset contains 4,004 cases, down 12 percent from the 5,003 in 1990.
