Section 2 Trends in participation by age group
  Figures 3 and 4 are revisions of Figs. 1 and 2, taking into account age groups instead of transportation modes. As can be seen from 2005 in Fig. 4, accident participation increased twofold for the 75 and older age group, while it decreased for the 18-24 and 01-17 age groups. This indicates that participation trends also vary by age group.
