Samenvatting
The current federal highway traffic accident data collection system does not produce representative data essential for answering cause-and-effect questions concerning accidents, injuries, and fatalities. A proposed federal data collection system (SIR) can solve those problems at a total cost of about $6 million a year. The SIR system would include 30 investigation teams precisely located throughout the U.S., and would include a Sampling program, an In-depth program, and a Rapid-Response program.
