Description

Walking and biking are becoming increasingly popular modes of transportation: nearly a million more people reported walking or biking to work in 2013 than in 2005. While total traffic fatalities declined from 2004 through 2013 (the most recent year for which data are available), this was not matched by a similar decline in pedestrian and cyclist fatalities. This report examines: (1) trends in pedestrian and cyclist fatalities and injuries from 2004 through 2013 and characteristics of these fatalities and injuries; (2) safety initiatives that selected states and cities have implemented and their views on challenges in addressing this issue; and (3) actions taken by the Department of Transportation (DOT) to help improve safety. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
