There were 921 people killed in traffic crashes during 2008, 894 in 2009 and projections estimate another decrease for 2010. The 894 fatalities in 2009 represent a 2.9% decrease in fatalities compared to 2008. In addition, South Carolina experienced a 1.0% reduction in its mileage death rate during 2009. The Office of Highway Safety estimates that traffic fatalities will be down approximately 12.9% with the number of fatalities expected to be about 779 for 2010. According to NHTSA, South Carolina experienced a decrease in the number of alcohol-impaired (a driver with a BAC of .08 or more involved in the collision) fatalities during 2009, while the percentage of traffic fatalities in our State that were DUI-related also decreased. NHTSA estimates reported 400 alcohol- impaired fatalities in 2008 and 377 in 2009, a 5.7% decrease. In 2008, 43.4% of all traffic fatalities were alcohol-impaired and that percentage fell to 42.2% in 2009. Motorcycle fatalities showed a 12.2% decrease in 2009. Pedestrian and bicyclist fatalities were also down 11.9% and 21.4% respectively. Estimates for 2010 show continued decreases in motorcycle and pedestrian fatalities; however, bicyclist fatalities are showing an increase. 3 Crash Data / Trends Progress Report Data 2003 - 2009 with 2010 Estimates Preliminary Projections '07 - '09 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 Average Fatalities (Actual) 969 1,046 1,094 1,045 1,077 921 894 779 964 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 Fatality Rate /100 million VMT 2.01 2.11 2.21 2.08 2.11 1.86 1.84 1.58 1.94 Rural 2.82 2.76 3.96 3.64 3.81 3.63 3.69 3.13 3.71 Urban 0.58 0.91 0.50 0.56 0.43 0.17 0.17 0.15 0.26 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Serious Injuries 4,224 4,211 4,143 4,091 4,104 3,513 3,468 3,291 3,695 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Fatalities Involving Driver or Motorcycle Operator w/ > .08 BAC 389 368 436 419 464 400 377 319 414 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Unrestrained Passenger Vehicle Occupant Fatalities 496 579 548 457 492 412 381 327 428 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Speeding-Related Fatalities 410 463 481 419 454 350 337 296 380 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Motorcyclist Fatalities 89 88 106 110 131 123 108 95 121 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Unhelmeted Motorcyclist Fatalities 69 72 78 82 96 91 82 71 90 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Drivers Age 20 or Younger Involved in Fatal Crashes 173 164 167 164 170 141 128 105 146 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Pedestrian Fatalities 80 86 98 128 108 101 89 82 99 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 % Observed Belt Use for Passenger Vehicles - Front Seat Outboard Occupants 72.7% 65.7% 69.7% 72.5% 74.5% 79.5% 81.5% 85.4% 78.5% 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Seat Belt Citations Issued During Grant-Funded Enforcement Activities 27,352 108,964 232,707 265,952 285,073 202,541 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Impaired Driving Arrests Made During Grant-Funded Enforcement Actitivies 3,765 6,554 20,031 26,589 30,574 17,725 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 # of Speeding Citations Issued During Grant-Funded Enforcement Activities 95,902 188,097 438,058 521,114 521,439 382,423 4 To decrease traffic fatalities 5% from the 2006-2008 calendar base year average Goal: Fatalities of 1,014 to 963 by December 31, 2010. 1,400 Fatality Trend 1,250 1,094 1,077 1,100 1,046 1,045 969 950 921 894 800 Fatalities (Actual) Performance Trend 650 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 To decrease fatalities/VMT from the 2006-2008 calendar base year Goal: Fatality Rate/VMT average of 2.02 to 1.9 by December 31, 2010.

  • Sinclair Broadcast Group Closes on Acquisition of Barrington Stations
    Contact: David Amy, EVP & CFO, Sinclair Lucy Rutishauser, VP & Treasurer, Sinclair (410) 568-1500 SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP CLOSES ON ACQUISITION OF BARRINGTON STATIONS BALTIMORE (November 25, 2013) -- Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBGI) (the “Company” or “Sinclair”) announced today that it closed on its previously announced acquisition of 18 television stations owned by Barrington Broadcasting Group, LLC (“Barrington”) for $370.0 million and entered into agreements to operate or provide sales services to another six stations. The 24 stations are located in 15 markets and reach 3.4% of the U.S. TV households. The acquisition was funded through cash on hand. As previously discussed, due to FCC ownership conflict rules, Sinclair sold its station in Syracuse, NY, WSYT (FOX), and assigned its local marketing agreement (“LMA”) and purchase option on WNYS (MNT) in Syracuse, NY to Bristlecone Broadcasting. The Company also sold its station in Peoria, IL, WYZZ (FOX) to Cunningham Broadcasting Corporation (“CBC”). In addition, the license assets of three stations were purchased by CBC (WBSF in Flint, MI and WGTU/WGTQ in Traverse City/Cadillac, MI) and the license assets of two stations were purchase by Howard Stirk Holdings (WEYI in Flint, MI and WWMB in Myrtle Beach, SC) to which Sinclair will provide services pursuant to shared services and joint sales agreements. Following its acquisition by Sinclair, WSTM (NBC) in Syracuse, NY, will continue to provide services to WTVH (CBS), which is owned by Granite Broadcasting, and receive services on WHOI in Peoria, IL from Granite Broadcasting. Sinclair has, however, notified Granite Broadcasting that it does not intend to renew these agreements in these two markets when they expire in March of 2017.

  • Estimating the Value of TV Broadcast Licenses for the Upcoming FCC Incentive Auction November 23, 2015
    Estimating the Value of TV Broadcast Licenses for the Upcoming FCC Incentive Auction November 23, 2015 Abstract The Federal Communications Commission was granted the power to organize a spectrum auction—the Incentive Auction—in order to repurpose a portion of the 600 MHz spectrum, currently being used by television broadcasters. Television broadcasters can participate in the Incentive Auction and potentially share a portion of the proceeds of the Incentive Auction. Television broadcasters can also choose not to participate or drop out of the process as the Auction is being conducted and risk being repacked in a lower frequency spectrum. As a result, the Incentive Auction has created certain opportunities and uncertainties for television broadcasters. The structure of the Incentive Auction does not offer a clear decision to television broadcasters and speculation about the outcome of the Incentive Auction could prove to be a useless exercise. Therefore, television broadcasters are left with two main tasks prior to the commencement of the Incentive Auction: (1) Educate themselves about the rules of the Incentive Auction, (2) Estimate a clearing price—the lowest price they are willing to accept in exchange for relinquishing their FCC license—before participating in the Incentive Auction. This white paper discusses certain important aspects of the Incentive Auction and delves into different factors impacting the value of a typical television station and its primary asset, an FCC license, in the current state of the broadcasting industry. The paper also provides guidance for television broadcasters concerning various methodologies used to value a television station and an FCC license. Ultimately, television broadcasters must be prepared to make an informed decision prior to the upcoming Incentive Auction process.
