The paper examines the transportation safety performance of transit agencies providing public bus service in the US by using data from the National Transit Database (NTD)
Uses NTD data for a seven-year period from 2008 to 2014 • 3,853 observations for 651 public transportation agencies in 50 states
Seven types of bus transit fatalities and injuries (including passengers, operators, pedestrians, bicyclists)
