Presently, twenty-one (21) years of data from the period 1975 through 1995 are available for analysis. This Research Note presents the findings from a study of the fatality trends by the day of week on which the crash occurred. The study also examined the changes in the day of week fatality trends for each day of the week over the 21 year period. 4p.
