Coal mining is one of the most dangerous occupations in the United States. In 2007, nine West Virginia miners lost their lives, and over 920 injuries with lost time were reported (West Virginia Office of Miners' Health Safety and Training). Accidents in the coal mining industry happen to workers mining underground, at surface mines, in quarries and in preparation facilities, although statistically the underground miner has the best chance of being injured or killed on the job.

Three of West Virginia's most popular interstates (I-64, I-77 and I-79) interlace through much of West Virginia, Ohio and Western Pennsylvania. They are to blame for a multitude of accidents and deaths every year. The many coal trucks, big rigs and tractor-trailers that use the freeways contribute to the danger. These large vehicles have been responsible for deadly chain-reaction crashes.
