This annual edition of Large Truck Crash Facts contains descriptive statistics about fatal, injury, and property damage only crashes involving large trucks in 2005. Selected crash statistics on passenger vehicles are also presented for comparison purposes. The MCMIS Crash File is intended to be a census of trucks and buses involved in fatal, injury and towaway crashes; however, some States do not report all FMCSA-eligible crashes. For 2005, States reported 145,286 trucks involved in crashes through SAFETYNET to the MCMIS Crash File. FMCSA continues to work with the States to improve data quality and reporting of all eligible large truck crashes to the MCMIS crash file. FARS, GES, and MCMIS describe the events and details of motor vehicle crashes, but they do not include data on crash causation or fault.
