* "Land Use" derived from "Roadway Functional Class" variable.

† Note that Fatality Data for 2004 is based on FARS "early assessment" file.  The final file will likely be released c. August 2006, and contain several more fatalities.  For reference, the 2003 "early assessment" reported 42,643 fatalities overall in 2003.  The final 2003 file reported 42,884 fatalities.  Differences for a single age in a single state are unlikely to be large.

‡ All data reported here was obtained from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Fatality Analysis Reporting System databases, available at and downloaded from ftp://ftp.nhtsa.dot.gov, and queried using SAS 9.1.
