The Crash Data On California State Highways Report is produced annually by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to provide high level summaries of road miles, travel, crashes and crash rates on the California State Highway System. This table lists statewide vehicle travel expressed in Million Vehicle Miles (MVM), road miles, and one and three year crash rates and fatality rates based on lane types and population codes. While crash rates for total crash and fatal + injury crashes are calculated per MVM, fatality rates are expressed per 100 MVM.
