Truck accident statistics in Florida by year (2015–2025)
Each bar shows the number of truck and bus accident records reported in Florida for that year — the most were reported in 2022 (11,104). This year-by-year chart is the main anti-thin-content upgrade for the state pages, giving each jurisdiction a unique trend instead of a template-only summary. The final bar is lighter and outlined because 2025 is provisional, with late reports still arriving. These are counts of reported records, reflecting trucking activity and exposure, not crash risk or safety.
