"a  Passenger-kilometers are derived by multiplying vehicle-kilometers by an average occupancy rate for that vehicle type based on data provided by the Federal Highway Administration, Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey (1977, 1983, 1995) and Federal Highway Administration and Bureau of Transportation Statistics, National Household Travel Survey (2001).  Average vehicle occupancy rates are as follows:",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

"c Energy Intensity (kilojoule/passenger-kilometer) is calculated by converting the fuel consumption in liters to the energy equivalent kilojoule units and dividing by the passenger-kilometers.  The heat equivalent factor used for kilojoule conversion is 34,839,537 joules/liter.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
NOTES:  ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"In 1995, the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration revised its vehicle type categories for 1993 and later data. ",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"These new categories include passenger car, other 2-axle 4-tire vehicle, single-unit 2-axle 6-tire or more truck, and combination truck. ",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"Other 2-axle 4-tire vehicle includes vans, pickup trucks, and sport utility vehicles.  In previous years, some minivans and sport utility vehicles were included in the passenger car category.  Single-unit 2-axle 6-tire or more trucks are on a single frame with at least 2 axles and 6 tires.  Pre-1993 data have been reassigned to the closest available category.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
