TRAFFIC RECORDS SURVEY OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES

THE PURPOSE OF THE SURVEY WAS TO DESCRIBE THE TRAFFIC RECORD FILES MAINTAINED BY REPRESENTATIVE SUB-STATE GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES AND TO IDENTIFY THE DATA ELEMENTS IN EACH OF THESE FILES. THIRTY CITIES AND COUNTIES WERE SELECTED AND INVENTORIED, WITH SELECTION BASED ON GEOGRAPHIC REPRESENTATIVENESS AND THE EXISTENCE OF AUTOMATED RECORDS. THE COMPILED RESULTS, COMPLEMENTING PREVIOUS INVENTORIES OF STATE, FEDERAL AND PRIVATE INDUSTRY RECORDS, ENHANCES THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S CAPABILITY TO LOCATE DATA NEEDED FOR RESEARCH. /AUTHOR/
