Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) was created in the United States by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to provide an overall measure of highway safety, to help suggest solutions, and to help provide an objective basis to evaluate the effectiveness of motor vehicle safety standards and highway safety programs.

FARS contains data on a census of fatal traffic crashes within the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. To be included in FARS, a crash must involve a motor vehicle traveling on a trafficway customarily open to the public and result in the death of a person (occupant of a vehicle or a non-occupant) within 30 days of the crash. FARS has been operational since 1975 and has collected information on over 989,451 motor vehicle fatalities and collects information on over 100 different coded data elements that characterizes the crash, the vehicle, and the people involved.

FARS is vital to the mission of NHTSA to reduce the number of motor vehicle crashes and deaths on our nation's highways, and subsequently, reduce the associated economic loss to society resulting from those motor vehicle crashes and fatalities. FARS data is critical to understanding the characteristics of the environment, trafficway, vehicles, and persons involved in the crash.

NHTSA has a cooperative agreement with an agency in each state government to provide information in a standard format on fatal crashes in the state. Data is collected, coded and submitted into a micro-computer data system and transmitted to Washington, D.C. Quarterly files are produced for analytical purposes to study trends and evaluate the effectiveness highway safety programs.

Content

The Motor Vehicle Collisions crash table contains details on the crash event. Each row represents a crash event. 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.

Motivation

Drowsiness is an intermediate condition that fluctuates between alertness and sleep. It reduces the consciousness level and hinders a person from responding quickly to important road safety issues [1]. The American Automobile Association (AAA) has reported that about 24% of 2,714 drivers that participated in a survey revealed being extremely drowsy while driving, at least once in the last month [2]. In 2017, the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) also reported 795 fatalities in motor vehicle crashes involving drowsy drivers [3]. Drowsy driving has caused about 2.5% of fatal accidents from 2011 through 2015 in the USA, and it is estimated to produce an economic loss of USD 230 billion annually [4]. Klauer et al. have found in their study that drowsy drivers contributed to 22-24% of crashes or near-crash risks [5]. The German Road Safety Council (DVR) has reported that one out of four fatal highway crashes has been caused by drowsy drivers [6]. In a study carried out in 2015, it has been reported that the average prevalence of falling asleep while driving in the previous two years was about 17% in 19 European countries [6]. The results of these studies emphasize the importance of detecting drowsiness early enough to initiate preventive measures. Drowsiness detection systems are intended to warn the drivers before an upcoming level of drowsiness gets critical to prevent drowsiness-related accidents.

Intelligent Systems that automate motor vehicle driving on the roads are being introduced to the market step-wise. The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) issued a standard defining six levels ranging from no driving automation (level 0) to full driving automation (level 5) [7]. While the SAE levels 0-2 require that an attentive driver carries out or at least monitors the dynamic driving task, in the SAE level 3 of automated driving, drivers will be allowed to do a secondary task allowing the system to control the vehicle under limited conditions, e.g., on a motorway. Still, the automation system has to hand back the vehicle guidance to the driver whenever it cannot control the state of the vehicle any more. However, the handover of vehicle control to a drowsy driver is not safe. Therefore, the system should be informed about the state of the driver.

To date, different Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) have been made by car manufactures and researchers to improve driving safety and manage the traffic flow. ADAS systems have been benefited from advanced machine perception methods, improved computing hardware systems, and intelligent vehicle control algorithms. By recently increasing the availability of huge amounts of sensor data to ADAS, data-driven approaches are extensively exploited to enhance their performance. The driver drowsiness detection systems have gained much attention from researchers. Before its use in the development of driving automation, drowsiness warning systems have been produced for the direct benefit of avoiding accidents.

The aim of the WACHSens project was to collect a big data set to detect the different levels of driver drowsiness during performing two different driving modes: manual and automated.
