These Incidents Happen Every Day

When we turn to the New Jersey DOT, we see that there were more than 270,000 traffic crashes during the Latest Reporting Year. Out of those, there were over 60,000 injury crashes and over 624 fatal crashes.

  • There were 183 pedestrians killed and thousands injured during the latest year in NJ.

Nearly every pedestrian crash results in an injury or fatality. Pedestrians are the most vulnerable group in and around the roadways. The average passenger vehicle weighs 4,000 pounds.
