Abstract:

This guidebook is part of a series of data guidebooks for each Highway Safety Information System (HSIS) agency that explain the variables and attributes provided by each agency. Each guidebook describes the agency’s data system and presents an alphabetized listing of all available variables. All data are derived from police-reported crash records, maintained highway records, and other supplementary inventories.


These guidebooks are available to help researchers, analysts, programmers, and safety professionals use HSIS data to further transportation safety for all road users.
