Motor Vehicle Fatalities Down for Third Consecutive Year
The nation saw a decline in traffic deaths during 2018 and 2017, which suggests a continuing decline in traffic-related deaths, says data from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
“Safety is our top priority so this report that traffic fatalities appear to have decreased again for the third year is great news,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao.
