Year 2002
Edition - Version 2.09 - 2/21/2003
This is a consolidation of crash report forms from all 50
states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
The purpose is to provide a comparative crash data reference for use by
the states, NHTSA Headquarters and Region Offices, other Federal agencies, and
private organizations and groups. This
website also contains a listing of all state coordinators for the crash report
forms, the state reporting threshold, and E-mail / Web-Site addresses of the state
crash forms coordinators. We would like to inform our users that some of the
state’s crash report forms were provided in hard copy, and therefore, the
resolution of some forms, especially those with detailed graphics, may not be
clear. In some instances, printing
the form improves the resolution. We
are striving to obtain electronic versions of the state crash report forms from
all States and territories. This
should remedy problems with form resolution.
As crash forms are revised by states and provided to us, we will update
them on this website. NHTSA supports the use of uniform crash report form data
elements and encourages the use of ANSI D-16 and D-20 standards.
The purpose of ANSI-D16, Manual On Classification of Motor Vehicle
Traffic Accidents, is to provide a common language for collectors and users
of traffic crash data. The
purpose of ANSI D-20, Data Element Dictionary For Traffic Records Systems,
is to provide a common set of element coding instructions as these relate to
traffic safety, driver licensing and vehicle registration. NHTSA in collaboration with the Federal Highway Administration and the National Association of Governors’ Highway Safety Representatives has developed a guideline for crash data collection. The guideline is referred to as the Model Minimum Uniform Crash Criteria (MMUCC). MMUCC is intended to be a guideline for collecting crash data. MMUCC is endorsed by many highway safety groups and organizations. The final MMUCC was published in August 1998. To view ANSI-D16 and MMUCC, follow the links below using Acrobat. ANSI-D16 You may retrieve the information and forms for a given state by locating that state on a Map or in a List You will find a summary of the crash information for each state with printable versions of all crash forms. Please note that in some cases, as indicated in the state specific pages of this catalogue, we have copies of the local crash coding manual, data dictionary, etc. Copies of these may be obtained by contacting the project contractor at crashforms@tsass.com. NOTE: You will need Acrobat Reader to view much of the catalogue content. If you need the current version of Acrobat Reader, you may download it for free from: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html or simply click on this icon:
Should you have any questions, feel free to contact the NHTSA Office of Traffic Records & Driver Licensing: Jackie Schraf Phone: (202) 366-2719 Should you have additional information about the crash forms and crash data system in your state, or should you be interested in providing information on major local systems, we would appreciate the additional information. Masters (originals) of forms, coding manuals, and data dictionaries may be submitted for inclusion in the Catalogue. If, as a result of your use of either of these sources, you should identify an out-dated form or information, please contact the contractor responsible for this project as listed below If you would like an updated copy of this website on a CD, or would like to submit new forms or information, please contact: Traffic Safety Analysis Systems & Services, Inc. |
