The Motor Vehicle Collisions person table contains details for people involved in the crash. Each row represents a person (driver, occupant, pedestrian, bicyclist,..) involved in a crash. The data in this table goes back to April 2016 when crash reporting switched to an electronic system. The Motor Vehicle Collisions data tables contain information from all police reported motor vehicle collisions in NYC. The police report (MV104-AN) is required to be filled out for collisions where someone is injured or killed, or where there is at least $1000 worth of damage (https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.dot.gov/files/documents/ny_overlay_mv-104an_rev05_2004.pdf). It should be noted that the data is preliminary and subject to change when the MV-104AN forms are amended based on revised crash details. Due to success of the CompStat program, NYPD began to ask how to apply the CompStat principles to other problems. Other than homicides, the fatal incidents with which police have the most contact with the public are fatal traffic collisions. Therefore in April 1998, the Department implemented TrafficStat, which uses the CompStat model to work towards improving traffic safety. Police officers complete form MV-104AN for all vehicle collisions. The MV-104AN is a New York State form that has all of the details of a traffic collision. Before implementing Trafficstat, there was no uniform traffic safety data collection procedure for all of the NYPD precincts. Therefore, the Police Department implemented the Traffic Accident Management System (TAMS) in July 1999 in order to collect traffic data in a uniform method across the City. TAMS required the precincts manually enter a few selected MV-104AN fields to collect very basic intersection traffic crash statistics which included the number of accidents, injuries and fatalities. As the years progressed, there grew a need for additional traffic data so that more detailed analyses could be conducted. The Citywide traffic safety initiative, Vision Zero started in the year 2014. Vision Zero further emphasized the need for the collection of more traffic data in order to work towards the Vision Zero goal, which is to eliminate traffic fatalities. Therefore, the Department in March 2016 replaced the TAMS with the new Finest Online Records Management System (FORMS). FORMS enables the police officers to electronically, using a Department cellphone or computer, enter all of the MV-104AN data fields and stores all of the MV-104AN data fields in the Department’s crime data warehouse. Since all of the MV-104AN data fields are now stored for each traffic collision, detailed traffic safety analyses can be conducted as applicable.

The program collects data for analysis of traffic safety crashes to identify problems, and evaluate countermeasures leading to reducing injuries and property damage resulting from motor vehicle crashes. The FARS dataset contains descriptions, in standard format, of each fatal crash reported. To qualify for inclusion, a crash must involve a motor vehicle traveling a traffic-way customarily open to the public and resulting in the death of a person (occupant of a vehicle or a non-motorist) within 30 days of the crash. Each crash has more than 100 coded data elements that characterize the crash, the vehicles, and the people involved. The specific data elements may be changed slightly each year to conform to the changing user needs, vehicle characteristics and highway safety emphasis areas. The type of information that FARS, a major application, processes is therefore motor vehicle crash data.

The State of Michigan’s criteria for a crash is a motor vehicle that was in transport and on the roadway, that resulted in death, injury, or property damage of $1,000 or more. Traffic crashes in this dataset are derived from SEMCOG’s Open Data Portal. Each row in the dataset represents a traffic crash that includes data about when and where the crash occurred, road conditions, number of individuals involved in the crash, and various factors that apply to the crash (Train, Bus, Deer, etc.). Also included is the number of injuries and fatalities that are associated with the crash.

This table contains data on the annual number of fatal and severe road traffic injuries per population and per miles traveled by transport mode, for California, its regions, counties, county divisions, cities/towns, and census tracts. Injury data is from the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), California Highway Patrol (CHP), 2002-2010 data from the Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) . The table is part of a series of indicators in the [Healthy Communities Data and Indicators Project of the Office of Health Equity]. Transportation accidents are the second leading cause of death in California for people under the age of 45 and account for an average of 4,018 deaths per year (2006-2010). Risks of injury in traffic collisions are greatest for motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists and lowest for bus and rail passengers. Minority communities bear a disproportionate share of pedestrian-car fatalities; Native American male pedestrians experience 4 times the death rate as Whites or Asians, and African-Americans and Latinos experience twice the rate as Whites or Asians. More information about the data table and a data dictionary can be found in the About/Attachments section.

Overview:

Information on location and characteristics of crashes in Queensland for all reported Road Traffic Crashes occurred from 1 January 2001 to 30 November 2023. Fatal crashes to 30 November 2023. Non-fatal, hospitalisation, medical treatment and minor injury crashes to 30 June 2023 and property damage only crashes to 31 December 2010.

_Fatal, Hospitalisation, Medical treatment and Minor injury: _

This dataset contains information on crashes reported to the police which resulted from the movement of at least 1 road vehicle on a road or road related area. Crashes listed in this resource have occurred on a public road and meet one of the following criteria:

• a person is killed or injured, or
• at least 1 vehicle was towed away, or
• the value of the property damage meets the appropriate criteria listed below.

_Property damage: _

1. $2500 or more damage to property other than vehicles (after 1 December 1999)
2. $2500 or more damage to vehicle and/or other property (after 1 December 1991 and before 1 December 1999)
3. value of property damage is greater than $1000 (before December 1991).

_Please note: _

• This data has been extracted from the Queensland Road Crash Database.
• Information held in the Road Crash Database on events occurring within the last 12 months is considered preliminary as investigations into crashes can take up to 1 year to finalise.
• Property damage only crashes ceased to be reported/recorded by Queensland Police Service after 31 December 2010.
• These crash location coordinates reference the current Australian geodetic datum is GDA2020 (previously it was GDA94).

A. SUMMARY This table contains all parties involved in a traffic crash resulting in an injury in the City of San Francisco. Fatality year-to-date crash data is obtained from the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OME) death records, and only includes those cases that meet the San Francisco Vision Zero Fatality Protocol maintained by the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH), San Francisco Police Department (SFPD), and San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA). Injury crash data is obtained from SFPD’s Interim Collision System for 2018 to YTD, Crossroads Software Traffic Collision Database (CR) for years 2013-2017 and the Statewide Integrated Transportation Record System (SWITRS) maintained by the California Highway Patrol for all years prior to 2013. Only crashes with valid geographic information are mapped. All geocodable crash data is represented on the simplified San Francisco street centerline model maintained by the Department of Public Works (SFDPW). Collision injury data is queried and aggregated on a quarterly basis. Crashes occurring at complex intersections with multiple roadways are mapped onto a single point and injury and fatality crashes occurring on highways are excluded.

The crash, party, and victim tables have a relational structure. The traffic crashes table contains information on each crash, one record per crash. The party table contains information from all parties involved in the crashes, one record per party. Parties are individuals involved in a traffic crash including drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, and parked vehicles. The victim table contains information about each party injured in the collision, including any passengers. Injury severity is included in the victim table.

For example, a crash occurs (1 record in the crash table) that involves a driver party and a pedestrian party (2 records in the party table). Only the pedestrian is injured and thus is the only victim (1 record in the victim table).

B. HOW THE DATASET IS CREATED Traffic crash injury data is collected from the California Highway Patrol 555 Crash Report as submitted by the police officer within 30 days after the crash occurred. All fields that match the SWITRS data schema are programmatically extracted, de-identified, geocoded, and loaded into TransBASE. See Section D below for details regarding TransBASE.

C. UPDATE PROCESS After review by SFPD and SFDPH staff, the data is made publicly available approximately a month after the end of the previous quarter (May for Q1, August for Q2, November for Q3, and February for Q4).

D. HOW TO USE THIS DATASET This data is being provided as public information as defined under San Francisco and California public records laws. SFDPH, SFMTA, and SFPD cannot limit or restrict the use of this data or its interpretation by other parties in any way. Where the data is communicated, distributed, reproduced, mapped, or used in any other way, the user should acknowledge TransBASE.sfgov.org as the source of the data, provide a reference to the original data source where also applicable, include the date the data was pulled, and note any caveats specified in the associated metadata documentation provided. However, users should not attribute their analysis or interpretation of this data to the City of San Francisco. While the data has been collected and/or produced for the use of the City of San Francisco, it cannot guarantee its accuracy or completeness. Accordingly, the City of San Francisco, including SFDPH, SFMTA, and SFPD make no representation as to the accuracy of the information or its suitability for any purpose and disclaim any liability for omissions or errors that may be contained therein. As all data is associated with methodological assumptions and limitations, the City recommends that users review methodological documentation associated with the data prior to its analysis, interpretation, or communication.

This dataset can also be queried on the TransBASE Dashboard. TransBASE is a geospatially enabled database maintained by SFDPH that currently includes over 200 spatially referenced variables from multiple agencies and across a range of geographic scales, including infrastructure, transportation, zoning, sociodemographic, and collision data, all linked to an intersection or street segment. TransBASE facilitates a data-driven approach to understanding and addressing transportation-related health issues, informed by a large and growing evidence base regarding the importance of transportation system design and land use decisions for health. TransBASE’s purpose is to inform public and private efforts to improve transportation system safety, sustainability, community health and equity in San Francisco.

The State of Michigan’s criteria for a crash is a motor vehicle that was in transport and on the roadway, that resulted in death, injury, or property damage of $1,000 or more. Traffic crashes in this dataset are derived from SEMCOG’s Open Data Portal. Each row in the dataset represents a traffic crash that includes data about when and where the crash occurred, road conditions, number of individuals involved in the crash, and various factors that apply to the crash (Train, Bus, Deer, etc.). Also included is the number of injuries and fatalities that are associated with the crash.

People killed or seriously injured (KSI) is used as the metric for roadway safety rather than simply fatalities because fatalities alone tend to be random in nature and can obscure long-term trends. Including serious injuries makes the data more robust and better highlights how the region is doing at preventing serious vehicle crashes. This approach has been promoted by the FHWA and embraced by both NJDOT and PennDOT. Because KSI can fluctuate from year to year, five-year rolling averages are used to identify trends, as seen in the first chart. The data separates pedestrians and bicyclists from motor vehicle occupants because these users are more vulnerable to death or serious injury when involved in a crash. Data for motor vehicle and combined bicyclist and pedestrian KSI can be looked at as a raw total, normalized based on population (per capita), or based on vehicle miles driven (per VMT).

Each year, transit agencies have to fulfill the Federal Transit Agency’s (FTA) TPM requirements by reporting data to the FTA’s National Transit Database (NTD) on passengers who are killed and injured (regardless of severity) on their services, employees who are injured at work, and safety events. Transit fatalities are defined as deaths confirmed within thirty days, excluding deaths from trespassing and suicide. SEPTA includes fatalities from trespassers and suicides in their TPM reporting and target setting, while New Jersey Transit and PATCO do not. To use consistent data for all three transit agencies, trespassing deaths and suicides are included in this analysis. Transit injuries are defined as harm to a person which requires immediate medical attention away from the scene. While crime-related injuries are reported to the NTD, they are excluded from the injury performance target. As with fatalities, these are included in the analysis for data consistency. The third table below shows employee injuries per 200,000 work hours, which is also a TPM requirement. Major safety events include collisions, derailments, fires, hazardous material spills, or evacuations. Major security events are excluded from this analysis, per federal guidance.

In 2021, more than 44,000 male drivers were involved in fatal crashes in U.S. road traffic, which accounted for 72.3 percent of the total, while female drivers were involved in about 15,100 fatal crashes. The number of drivers who were involved in fatal crashes has shown an increase of about 16.2 percent from 2016.

Vision Zero Boston is our commitment to focus the city’s resources on proven strategies to eliminate fatal and serious traffic crashes in the city by 2030. We are inspired by the belief that even one fatality is too many. Learn more about about the Vision Zero Boston program at http://visionzeroboston.org.

This dataset, provided as part of the Vision Zero Boston program, contains records of the date, time, location, and type of fatality for Vision Zero related crashes resulting in a fatality. All records are compiled by the Department of Innovation and Technology from the City's Computer-Aided Dispatch (911) system and verified by the Boston Police Department as being a Vision Zero related fatality. To protect the privacy of individuals involved in these incidents, we do not provide any descriptions of the incident or whether medical care was provided in any specific case.

Additional notes:

• Each incident is included only once regardless of the number of individuals involved.
• The location of an incident reflects where public safety response was dispatched to, not the incident itself.
• Records are typically updated on a monthly basis, but because the verification process involves manual confirmation of incidents, exact posting schedules may vary.
• Records may be updated after their initial posting if new information becomes available.
• The data includes traffic fatalities that take place on streets that are within the jurisdiction of the Boston Police Department. It does not include traffic fatalities on streets that are within the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts State Police.
• The following are excluded: fatal crashes that occur on private property or on streets that are not owned by the City of Boston; fatalities due to driver medical emergencies, intentional assault, or suicide; fatalities where the driver or passenger fell out of a car.

Road accidents have been a major cause for concern across the Indian subcontinent. In 2022 alone, the country reported nearly 169 thousand fatalities due to road accidents. Each year, about three to five percent of the country’s GDP was invested in road accidents. Notably, while India has about one percent of the world’s vehicle population, it also accounted for about six percent of the global road traffic incidents. Almost 70 percent of the accidents involved young Indians.

Cases and causes

Two-wheelers had the maximum involvement in fatal road accidents across the country in 2018. A major portion of the accidents that year occurred at T-junctions. Over speeding has been a cause for concern throughout the country regardless of day or night-time. Moreover, fast and risky maneuvers and illegal street races on roads and highways not designed for the purpose created significant trouble for the police. Over 65 percent of the accidents occurred on straight roads. Additionally, state highways had a share of about 25 percent of the total road accidents in 2018.

Future scenario

Roughly around 17 accident-related deaths occur across India every hour. Fewer cops and empty roads at night, and sometimes even during the day seem to enable motorists to do away with the traffic rules. However, efforts were made to reduce these discrepancies. The police had equipped themselves with night vision speed guns to identify the culprits. Over speeding fine was increased in the amendment of the Motor Vehicles Act as well. The road network has played a crucial role in India’s economic development and the government is likely to continue to invest resources in making road safety a vital component of everyday commute.
