The most current data is always used at the time of publication, but it may change as new information is received. During 2000, an average of 114 persons died each day in motor vehicle crashes across the United States - one every 12.6 minutes.

Cost estimates are based on the 2000 National Safety Council estimates of the average cost of motor vehicle crashes, deaths and injuries. These costs are an estimate of wage and productivity losses, medical expenses, administrative expenses, motor vehicle damage, and employer costs. Effective in 1993, new components were added and new benchmarks andinflation factors adopted. For this reason, the cost estimates for 1999 are not comparable to those published in the past. Thefollowing factors were used to approximate the value of the loss for crashes occurring in Arizona. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

This is often called the “child crusher position.” In a crash of approximately 30 mph, a 10 lb infant will be ripped from a belted adult’s arms with a force of almost 200 pounds. If the adult is unbelted, the child is likely to be crushed between the adult’s body and the dashboard. Page 32 2000 Arizona Crash Facts Summary Arizona law requires the use of seat belts. A.R.S. Title 28-909 states "...each front seat occupant of a motor vehicle.which is manufactured for the model year 1972 and thereafter...shall have the lap and shoulder belt properly adjusted and fastened while the vehicle is in motion, or if only a lap belt is installed wherethe occupant is sitting, have the lap belt properly adjusted and fastened while the vehicle is in motion."
