14 Major Trends in RFGPTS Safety Performance Total Vehicle Revenue Miles (millions) Federal Transit Administration Avg Trend had the highest number of vehicle revenue miles with million. Vehicle revenue miles have increased by nearly 6% since 2007, including an increase of 3.3% reported in Total Safety Events 1, Avg Trend ,029 1,023 1,032 1,000 1, had the highest total of reported events for the analyzed period with 1,087, an 8.7% increase from The 2013 event total was greater than the industry average over the seven-year period ( events). Total Fatalities Avg Trend marked the first decrease in fatalities (-2.6%) since Agencies reported 152 fatalities, compared to 156 in The 152 fatalities reported are higher than the average reported over that period (137.29). Total Injuries Avg Trend The 616 injuries reported in 2013 was the lowest total since There has been a 12.5% reduction in injuries reported since reporting a high of 704 in Page 14

15 RFGPTS Safety Events by Mode Events by Mode '07 '08 '09 '10 '11 '12 '13 Avg Trend Heav y Rail Other Safety Events by Mode, Heavy rail service reported an increase in events in 2010, but rail event totals have remained consistent over the last four years. The 574 light rail events reported in 2013 represent a 12% increase from This percentage is more than double the average annual increase of 5.7% reported since 2007 and is the highest number reported over this period. Fatalities by Mode '07 '08 '09 '10 '11 '12 '13 Avg Trend Heav y Rail Other Fatalities by Mode, Heavy rail service reports more fatalities than any other mode. Heavy rail accounted for 116 fatalities in This was the highest fatality total for heavy rail during the sevenyear period, and is significantly higher than the next highest rail mode, light rail, which reported 35 fatalities in Since 2007, heavy rail has accounted for nearly 75% of all fatalities. Since 2007, SSOAs have reported a slight but steady average increase of 3.2% in fatalities reported due to light rail events. The 35 fatalities reported due to light rail events in 2013 is a 25.5% decrease from the highest total reported for the period analyzed (47, reported in 2012), and is above the reported annual average of fatalities. Page 15

16 There were no fatalities resulting from streetcar events in 2013, continuing a downward trend from the high of 3 reported in 2007 and SSOAs continued to report low numbers of fatalities at Other rail modes in Fatalities Bar Chart by Mode, Fatalities by Person Type '07 '08 '09 '10 '11 '12 '13 Avg Trend Passengers Patrons Public Workers Fatalities by Person Type, Following the 13 passenger fatalities reported in 2009, there has been a downward trend in passenger fatality totals. SSOAs reported the first decrease in patron fatalities since Note: Patrons are customers not onboard a vehicle at the time of fatality or injury. Public fatalities accounted for 74% of all fatalities reported in 2013, the lowest percentage of total fatalities during the seven-year period for this person type. Note: The Public category includes all suicide and trespassing-related fatalities. Page 16

17 Over the 7 years analyzed, public fatalities make up 78% of all fatalities reported by the SSOAs. There were 8 worker fatalities in 2013, resulting from workplace accidents and medical emergencies. This is the highest annual total of worker fatalities during the seven-year period. Injuries by Mode Fatalities Bar Chart by Person Type, '07 '08 '09 '10 '11 '12 '13 Avg Trend Heav y Rail Other Injuries by Mode, There was an increase in heavy rail injuries between 2007 and 2010; heavy rail injuries rose by over 78%. In 2013, SSOAs reported just the second decrease in reported heavy rail injuries since There was a 16% decrease reported in light rail injuries in 2013; from a high of 316 reported in 2012 to 266. Light rail service accounts for the highest injury total of all modes. Page 17

18 Since 2007, streetcar events have averaged 0.89 injuries per event, including 2007, which saw a high of 1.9 injuries per event, nearly 1 injury higher than the next closest reported total, streetcar in 2011 with There was an increase in injuries due to events at Other modes reported in 2010, accounting for 44% of all injuries for this rail mode over the seven-year period. Injuries by Person Type Percent Change in Injuries by Mode, A change from 0 is represented as a 100% increase on the charts above '07 '08 '09 '10 '11 '12 '13 Avg Trend Passenger Patron Public Worker Injuries by Person Type, Passenger injuries have declined at an average annual rate of 3.7% since 2007 with a low point of 221 passenger injuries reported in In 2013, SSOAs reported the first increase in passenger injuries since The 260 passenger injuries reported in 2013 are below the industry annual average of injuries, and represent the second lowest annual injury total for passengers over the entire period analyzed. Patrons (customers not onboard a transit vehicle) represent the largest annual increase in injuries, averaging a 29.3% increase per year since Page 18

19 In 2013, SSOAs reported 140 patron injuries, which is the first decrease in reported patron injuries since Public injuries continue to decline from the high of 251 reported in 2008 to 161 in Though there was a decline in worker injuries in 2013, there has been an average annual increase of 14.0% reported since Percent Change in Injuries by Person Type, A change from 0 is represented as a 100% increase on the charts above Page 19
