Where You're Most Likely to Die in a Crash: Top 10 States by Rate
Fatal crash rates are calculated per 100,000 residents for each year from 2020 through 2024 and averaged across the full five-year period to account for year-to-year fluctuations and provide a more stable measure of ongoing road fatality risk. Fatal crash data is sourced from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), which captures all police-reported motor vehicle crashes in the United States resulting in at least one fatality occurring within 30 days of the crash.
