    (1)  Effective 1/1/96 the vehicle loss reporting threshold was increased from $500 to $1,000.  While some sites
         are still reporting at the lower threshold due to contractual agreements, this report excludes all values 
         below the new threshold.
    (2)  Annual average.
    (4)  The National Safety Council rates are estimated for all U.S. vehicle accidents, regardless of dollar loss.
