Non-Major Safety and Security Events

Counts of Non-Major Safety and Security Events are reported to the National Transit Database on a monthly basis, by transit agency and transit mode. These include minor fires on transit property requiring suppression, transit worker assaults not involving transport for medical attention, and other safety events that are not reportable as Major Events because a Major Event reporting threshold is not met (see Safety and Security Events dataset for a list of Major Events).

In this file you will find the number of occurrences or safety incidents per month and the number of injuries in Safety Events (Safety/Security = SAF) where an individual was immediately transported away from the scene for medical attention due to those occurrences. There will be one entry for any transit mode/location with at least one occurrence for the given month.

The file also contains Transit Worker Assaults which did not immediately transport away from the scene for 2023-present, as well as other Security Events (Safety/Security = SEC) reported historically but no longer collected by FTA. Note that an assault involving transport away from the scene for medical attention meets the Injury threshold and is not counted in this dataset.

Agencies are not required to provide details for these events, and any description provided is omitted. The description can be available upon request.
