The complete Large Truck and Bus Crash Facts annual reports contain vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and vehicle registration data that are made available only in the late autumn or early winter. For the 2008 report, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration FMCSA) is publishing this online Early Release of the annual report, based solely on crash data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and FMCSA. These data are enough to complete most of the tables in the published annual report; however, any tables that depend on VMT and vehicle registration data for the calculation of crash rates will be missing 2008 data for some of the rows and columns. In these early release tables, missing data are indicated by dashes.
When VMT and vehicle registration data become available, FMCSA will revise the tables in this report that depend on those data, add additional tables, and publish the final version of the full 2008 report in print and online (PDF and HTML) editions.

Featured Report: DocuTicker Report: DocuTips on Health Literacy: "What has traditionally been understood as literacy has been disrupted, like so much else, by the advent of the Internet. No longer is it regarded as simply the ability to read and write. In the Information Age, information literacy is a concept that recognises skills in judging trustworthiness and quality as critical. Such matters of accurate interpretation have long been among the concerns of scholars."
