Historical data: truck crashes in Haskell County since the 1990s
Combines the FMCSA crash file (all reported truck crashes, real coverage from about 1990) with NHTSA FARS (fatal crashes involving a large truck, 1982–2024).
| Decade | Truck crashes / yr | Change | Fatal crashes / yr (FARS) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 7 | — | 0.5 |
| 2000s | 8 | +19% | 1.5 |
| 2010s | 10 | +15% | 0.3 |
| 2020s | 9 | -8% | 0.4 |
From the 1990s to the 2020s, yearly reported truck crashes went from 7 to 9. Some of the change may reflect how crashes were reported. Fatal large-truck crashes: 0.5 a year in 2016–19, 0.4 a year in 2020–24.
