1999 and 2003 US Crime Clock
The Crime Clock should be viewed with care. Being the most aggregate
representation of Uniform Crime Report data, it is designed to
convey the annual reported crime experience by showing the relative
frequency of occurrence of the index offenses. This mode of display
should not be taken to imply a regularity in the commission of
the offenses; rather, it represents the annual ratio of crime to
fixed time intervals.

According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau,
P/C insurers lose over $30 billion a year in fraudulent claims.
And according to the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud, auto
insurance fraud alone costs insurers about $14 billion a year.
