The map is a visual summary; every value is in the table below, which is the keyboard and screen-reader path. Groups are quintiles of the values shown (a derived grouping). Boundaries: Natural Earth (public domain), simplified.

Rank is derived by Quadranac: 1 = highest value; ties share a rank. Values are as published in the source table.

Note: Covers accidents in urban and suburban areas only: accidents on federal highways are excluded, and deaths count only people who died at the scene, so these figures are well below total road deaths.
