The most current data is always used at the time of publication, but it may change as new information is received. During 2001, an average of 115 persons died each day in motor vehicle crashes across the United States - one every 12.5 minutes.

Cost estimates are based on the 2001 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. The following factors were used to approximate the value of the loss for crashes occurring in Arizona. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
