This dataset presents results from a survey of 906 FCV and 12,910 BEV households in California. The researcher investigated the sociodemographic profile of FCV buyers and compare them to BEV households. The publicly available dataset file includes the following information: response ID, date survey submitted, information on vehicle owned, ownership of previous PHEVs, BEVs, HEVs, CNGs, household income, home ownership, home type, highest level of education, longest trip in the last 12 months, number of trips over 200 miles in the last 12 months, one-way commute distance, number of people in the household, age, gender, number of vehicles in the household, and annual VMT estimate.

This table contains data on the annual number of fatal and severe road traffic injuries per population and per miles traveled by transport mode, for California, its regions, counties, county divisions, cities/towns, and census tracts. Injury data is from the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), California Highway Patrol (CHP), 2002-2010 data from the Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) . The table is part of a series of indicators in the [Healthy Communities Data and Indicators Project of the Office of Health Equity]. Transportation accidents are the second leading cause of death in California for people under the age of 45 and account for an average of 4,018 deaths per year (2006-2010). Risks of injury in traffic collisions are greatest for motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists and lowest for bus and rail passengers. Minority communities bear a disproportionate share of pedestrian-car fatalities; Native American male pedestrians experience 4 times the death rate as Whites or Asians, and African-Americans and Latinos experience twice the rate as Whites or Asians.
