The chart below shows numbers of incidents and injuries per 100 million passenger miles travelled (PMT) by transportation type in 2002.
The bar chart compares the number of
incidents
and
injuries
for every 100 million passenger miles travelled on five different types of public transport in 2002.
It is clear that
most
incidents
and
injuries
took place on demand response vehicles.
By contrast
, commuter
rail
services
recorded by far the lowest figures. A total of 225
incidents
and 173
injuries
, per 100 million passenger miles travelled, took place on demand-response transport
services
. These figures were nearly three times as high as those for the second highest category, bus
services
. There were 76
incidents
and 66 people were injured on buses.
Rail
services
experienced fewer problems. The number of
incidents
on light
rail
trains equalled the figure recorded for buses, but there were significantly fewer
injuries
, at only 39. Heavy
rail
services
saw lower numbers of
such
events than light
rail
services
, but commuter
rail
passengers were even less likely to experience problems. In fact, only 20
incidents
and 17
injuries
occurred on commuter trains.
