... Because of the relatively infrequent occurrence of fatalities and severe injuries among children on trips during normal school travel hours, it was necessary to combine multiple years of statistics to obtain reasonable sample sizes. In addition, some otherwise promising datasets were not usable because they lacked the specificity needed to identify incidences or trips related to students going to and from school, or because they could not be paired with the corresponding exposure or outcome data.
From page 26...
... .2 1On the basis of this dataset, School Transportation News estimates annual school bus ridership to be approximately 10.5 billion. Using the Annual Student Ride Formula, this calculation incorporates estimates for student rides on regular route to-and-from K-12 school service, school-related activity trips, some private and parochial school transportation service, summer school transportation service, and Head Start transportation service.

... , contains performance, operational (such as miles traveled, passenger-miles, and passengers carried) , and financial information, as well as injury data stratified by mode [motor bus, trolley bus, light rail (passenger rail operating on exclusive or separated guideways)
From page 29...
... In addition, the GES and NPTS datasets do not allow one to identify holidays or other special days in order to remove data for these days from the analyses. The rates per school day are rough estimates that assume different travel behavior for children during vacations (i.e., significantly fewer trips during normal school travel hours while on vacation and minimal school bus use)
From page 30...
... In addition, those aged 16­18 are more likely to hold after-school jobs or to participate in after-school activities that require transportation after regularly scheduled school bus service times. Therefore, the committee believed this last age group would be significantly different in both modes of travel used and number/length of trips during normal school travel hours, and thus should be examined separately.

... b Not included in FARS or GES. cThis category includes child pedestrian injuries and fatalities occurring in other bus-related crashes as well as in incidents with passenger vehicles driven by teens.
From page 32...
... Tables containing detailed trip and student-mile data are provided in Annex 2-1. The data suggest that, on average, each student made approximately 194 trips during normal morning school travel hours throughout the school year -- an average of 1.1 school trips per student each school morning.9 The definition of a trip is one-way travel from one address to another.

... As noted, moreover, the national databases used to examine the safety of children traveling to and from school -- FARS for fatality counts and GES for nonfatal injury estimates -- provide data only for incidents in which a motor vehicle is involved. There is no national database to record pedestrian and bicycling fatalities and injuries not involving a motor vehicle.

... Of the total student injuries, 5 percent are estimated to be to bicyclists in crashes not involving school buses. Table 2-10 shows the esti mated total number of injuries to school-age children during normal school travel hours for the years 1991 through 1999, inclusive, broken down by age and mode categories.

These standard error estimates are taken from the published generalized broad error estimates and are not derived individually for each individual estimate.

... Given the large numbers of fatalities and injuries that occur on highways in the United States and the fact that relatively few of these involve students during school travel hours, the benefits of any additional data collection efforts need to be fully considered before such efforts are recommended or implemented.
