Motor vehicle accident mortality rate (crude) per 100,000 population.
Why is this important?
-
Motor vehicle accidents are one of the leading causes of death in the US, and even more people are injured or disabled as a result of these accidents. In addition to negative health outcomes, motor vehicle accidents have significant economic impacts including the costs of medical care and resulting productivity losses per year. Many factors lead to these accidents but policymakers can support new approaches and proven safety measures to reduce the number of lives lost.
