This report presents descriptive statistics on the national population of tractor-trailer combinations. Included are estimates of the distribution of vehicles in the national population and their average annual mileage. These estimates are repeated for various subgroups defined by selected descriptive characteristics such as cab style, area of operation and operator classification. The objective of this report is to provide information on the type and use of tractor-trailer combinations in the United States. This preliminary analysis is part of an ongoing heavy truck accident causation research program. The basic approach of the program is to identify the various types of heavy trucks and their differing uses.
