| Abstract | The goal of this fact book is to present highway safety statistics and fact-based analysis that will increase public awareness on highway safety issues, and to provide information that will assist policy makers and highway safety advocates in making the roadways safer in Georgia. This fact book presents statewide information on crashes, injuries, fatalities, and the vehicles and drivers involved. It also summarizes recent trends. We have drawn from a number of data sources to provide an overview of highway safety in Georgia. All data was collected and recorded by routine data collection systems in the State of Georgia. Each data source represents a highly complex data system with different methods of collection, compilation and definitions. Because of these differences, direct comparison and analysis can pose special problems. Notwithstanding these special problems, we have endeavored to provide a complete and accurate presentation of the information available. Whenever possible, rate calculations were included in addition to the number of incidents. Such efforts were taken to present the actual incidence occurring within a specific population and to better understand trends over time. |
