Posted on August 18, 2011 Written By: iadminlaw
Rated as one of the most dangerous cities for driving is not good news for San Bernardino, or the people who live there. CNBC’s story this week gives San Bernardino the ranking of fifth most dangerous city for this issue.
The survey included cities that had the highest number of vehicular deaths as a measure of its danger level. Examining U.S. cities with a population of 150,000, and using the most recent crash data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Fatality Analysis Reporting System and General Estimates System, the authors found some statistics that should alarm the people in San Bernardino.
With a population of 198,580, San Bernardino, according to the news story, has a total fatality rate of 17.12 per 100,000 people. The most recent data puts the number at 38 for the total number of fatalities. Pedestrian fatalities accounted for 15.8 percent of that number.
