#' Create a FARS map by state and year
#'
#' This function will create a map of fatal accidents based on the \code{state.num}
#' and \code{year} arguments. An error will be thrown if an invalid state number
#' is provided. A message will also be printed if there are zero fatalities to
#' map.
#'
#' @param state.num An integer providing the function what state to use.
#' @param year An integer providing the function what year to use in the filename.
#'
#' @return This function returns a graphics map object.
