Corn , so re 'hum, ® Registered trademark of Pioneer Hi Bred International Inc Des Moines lowa USA The gasoline shortage and (he national Si mph speed limit arc considered the principal reasons why traffic deaths have dropped more than 10,000 since 1872 Nevertheless, traffic crashes have killed more than 2 million Americans since the first death was recorded in 1899 In this Bicentennial Year alone, fatalities arc expected to exceed the number of Revolutionary War battle deaths by more than 10 times. The number of crash deaths is influenced by numerous accident exposure factors which, in com bination, increase or reduce the chance of fatality. The gasoline shortage reduced deaths because fewer people were travelling fewer miles. The 55 mph speed limit is cutting deaths because traffic moves at a more uniform pace, reducing the chance of collision. And at lower speeds crash injuries are less severe. Many factors affect the chance of a fatal accident, like nighttime driving conditions, the safety features built into a roadway or vehicle, even the weather. Several measurement rates have been developed to READY SUPERIOR - for any rotation or grain, forage, sudangrass Lower speed limits paying off compare the severity of the crash problem under dif ferent risk conditions and to show trends While not perfect, the most familiar of these is the Mileage Death Rate, or MDR, which is the number of fatalities per 100 million vehicle miles of travel The following chart illustrates trends In traffic deaths, vehicle mileage and the MDR during the last 25 years In the 22 years preceding 1973, vehicle mileage in creased an average of 5.0 percent per year, deaths 2.0 percent per year. Thus the MDR declined by more than half. Since 1973, mileage has dropped and rebounded.
