This book was released on 2013-10-25 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the primary objectives of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is to reduce the staggering human toll and property damage that motor vehicle traffic crashes impose on our society. Crashes each year result in thousands of lives lost, hundreds of thousands of injured victims, and billions of dollars in property damage. Accurate data are required to support the development, implementation, and assessment of highway safety programs aimed at reducing this toll. NHTSA uses data from many sources, including the National Automotive Sampling System General Estimates System (GES) which began operation in 1988. Providing data about all types of crashes involving all types of vehicles, the GES is used to identify highway safety problem areas, provide a basis for regulatory and consumer information initiatives, and form the basis for cost and benefit analyses of highway safety initiatives. This multi-year analytical user's manual provides documentation on variables that are contained in the GES and other useful information that will enable the users to become familiar the data system.

Book excerpt: Detail information on each data element can be found in the NASS GES Coding and Editing Manuals, which NHTSA publishes for each year of data collection. Most changes in 2011 NASS GES are the result of NHTSA's efforts to standardize variables in NASS GES and the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS). The final phase of the FARSNASS GES standardization occur during the 2011 data collection year, while remaining separate data systems, FARS, and NASS GES are sharing a single data entry system and uniform set of data elements. All the locator codes for NASS GES data elements have changes, the summary of this change is included along with the additions, deletions and changes for 2011 NASS GES data files and data elements.

This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each crash must have at least one in-transport motor vehicle involved. The value entered must equal the total number of in-transport motor vehicles involved in the crash. Vehicles not in- transport are not included in this variable's count. In order for a vehicle to be considered in-transport, the motor vehicle must be either (1) on the roadway or (2) in motion. This includes driverless vehicles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Automotive Sampling System (NASS) Crashworthiness Data System (CDS) is a nationwide crash data collection program sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transportation. It is operated by the National Center for Statistics and Analysis (NCSA) of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The NASS CDS provides an automated, comprehensive national traffic crash database. Data collection began in 1979 in 10 geographic sites, called Primary Sampling Units (PSU's). In 2002, three additional PSUs were added to the system so that the 2004 NASS CDS file contains data from 27 PSU's. These data are weighted to represent all police reported motor vehicle crashes occurring in the USA during the year involving passenger cars, light trucks and vans that were towed due to damage. The NASS program was re-evaluated in the mid-1980's. This re-evaluation resulted in changes, which were implemented by NHTSA in January 1988. NASS now has two major operating components: (1) the General Estimates System (GES) which collects data on a sample of police traffic crash reports; and (2) the Crashworthiness Data System (CDS) which collects additional detailed information on a sample of police reported traffic crashes.

The GES obtains its data from a nationally representative probability sample selected from the estimated 6.1 million police-reported crashes which occur annually. These crashes include those that result in a fatality or injury and those involving major property damage. Although various sources suggest that there are many more crashes that are not reported to the police, the majority of these unreported crashes involve only minor property damage and no significant personal injury. By restricting attention to police-reported crashes, the GES concentrates on those crashes of greatest concern to the highway safety community and the general public. This multi-year analytical users manual provides documentation on variables that are contained in the GES and other useful information that will enable the users to become familiar the data system.

Download or read book Pre Crash Scenario Typology for Crash Avoidance Research written by Wassim G. Najm and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2007-04-30 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report defines a new pre-crash scenario typology for crash avoidance research based on the 2004 General Estimates System (GES) crash database, which consists of pre-crash scenarios depicting vehicle movements and dynamics as well as the critical event immediately prior to a crash. This typology establishes a common vehicle safety research foundation for public and private organizations, which will allow researchers to determine which traffic safety issues should be of first priority to investigate and to develop concomitant crash avoidance systems. Its main objectives are to identify all common pre-crash scenarios of all police-reported crashes involving at least one light vehicle (i.e., passenger car, sports utility vehicle, van, minivan, and light pickup truck); quantify their severity in terms of frequency of occurrence, economic cost, and functional years lost; portray each scenario by crash contributing factors and circumstances in terms of the driving environment, driver, and vehicle; and provide nationally representative crash statistics that can be annually updated using national crash databases such as GES. This new typology includes 37 pre-crash scenarios accounting for approximately 5,942,000 police-reported light-vehicle crashes, an estimated economic cost of 120 billion dollars, and 2,767,000 functional years lost. These statistics do not incorporate data from non-police-reported crashes.
