Abstract The Ohio Department of Public Safety is pleased to present the 2008 Ohio Traffic Crash Facts Book, an in-depth highway safety statistical profile and analysis compiled from data supplied by law enforcement agencies from across the state. This annual report provides a comprehensive look at the driving habits of Ohioans. It also helps the Ohio Department of Public Safety and local law enforcement agencies determine priorities and allocate resources to improve highway safety in Ohio. In 2008, Ohio continued to make improvements in highway safety. The traffic crash fatality rate continued to go down, to a near-historic low of 1,191 fatalities. Alcohol related fatalities and the number of people who died unbelted on Ohio’s roads also declined, but there is always more work to be done. We continue to track deaths and injuries in order to address any new issues that may arise as well as keep the numbers going in the right direction – down.
