Vision Zero Report Card
The 2026 Vision Zero Report Card tracks truck fatalities across 19 U.S. cities and compares progress among Vision Zero adopters.
About Vision Zero Report Card
This research page tracks truck-involved traffic fatalities in 19 major U.S. cities. It compares average annual deaths in 2018-2019 with the 2023-2024 average, and it groups the cities by whether they have formal Vision Zero commitments. Nationally, truck-involved fatalities rose 6.7%, from 5,027 in 2018 to 5,362 in 2024. Eleven of the 19 cities reduced these deaths over the period, and eight saw increases. Of the 17 cities with formal Vision Zero commitments, 10 improved and 7 did not. The page states that Vision Zero adoption was not predictive of outcomes.
The figures come from NHTSA's Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), a federal census of U.S. fatal traffic crashes. "Truck-involved" means medium or heavy commercial trucks (FARS body-type codes 60-69). Passenger pickups under 10,000 lbs gross weight are excluded. The page notes several limits: annual counts are small in some cities, so percentage changes can swing widely; city boundaries may cause highway crashes at city limits to be attributed to surrounding counties; and the 2024 data is preliminary.
Key features
- Compares average annual truck-involved fatalities for 2018-2019 and 2023-2024 across 19 cities
- Ranks cities by percentage change and by recent fatalities per 100,000 residents
- Shows raw yearly truck-involved fatality counts for each city from 2018 to 2024
- Groups results by whether each city has a formal Vision Zero commitment
- Flags cities with small annual counts whose percentage changes may be unreliable
- Builds figures from NHTSA FARS national downloads, with methodology described on the page
Best for: Readers who want city-level trends in truck-involved traffic deaths across selected large U.S. cities and how those trends compare with Vision Zero adoption.
Good for
- Uses FARS, which the page describes as a complete federal census of U.S. fatal traffic crashes
- Publishes baseline averages, recent averages, and yearly counts, so the figures can be checked
- States its caveats about small counts, city boundaries, and preliminary 2024 data
Watch out for
- Covers only 19 U.S. cities, not all cities or the whole country
- Percentage changes in cities with small annual counts can be noisy, as the page states
- The 2024 figures are preliminary and may be revised in the Final File expected in 2027
