Roadway Safety For Local Agencies Robin Ness, Mgr. Crash Analysis & Reporting Unit Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) Roadway Safety for Local Agencies Oregon State University, Kidder Hall, Room 238 February 19, 2010 It All Starts With Crash Data

Roadway Safety For Local Agencies Statewide Crash and Traffic Data MV Traffic Crashes – What is reported (ANSI D16) and what isnt reported… Reporting Path and Data Flow Coding Crashes - Process Crash Data – Whats Coded and How Can it Help Me Reporting Services and Safety Tools Finding Crash, Traffic, and other Safety Data Data Links and Contacts Questions / Comments

Roadway Safety For Local Agencies Statutory Citizen Reporting Requirements ORS : When MV traffic accidents must be reported...(summarized) There is more than $1,500 damage to a vehicle; There is more than $1,500 damage to property other than a vehicle; Someone is injured (no matter how minor the injury); someone is killed; or Any vehicle is towed due to damage resulting from the accident.

Roadway Safety For Local Agencies Why Some Crashes are Not in the State File Do not meet Oregons reporting threshold. Involved license suspensions w/non-compliant drivers and were delayed in DMVs process. Were hit-n-run with a parked vehicle or property. Involved multiple drivers who agreed not to report and no police are present to report. Single vehicle crash not attended by police, not reported by driver. Report doesnt reach DMV due to serious injury litigation or ongoing criminal investigation. (This is rare but has occurred.) Do not involve a motor vehicle, i.e. bicycle only.

Did not involve a motor vehicle, i.e., pedalcyclist vs. pole, pedestrian vs. train, pedalcyclist vs. street, etc.
