Publisher Description:
nThe National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) existing Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) and National Automotive Sampling System - General Estimates System (NASS-GES) already provide information regarding backing crashes that occur on public traffic ways. However, data regarding non-traffic backovers (and other backing crashes), those which occur on private roads, driveways, and parking lots, have not routinely been collected by NHTSA. In response to SAFETEA-LU Sections 2012 and 10305 and Section 2(f) of the Cameron Gulbransen Kids Transportation Safety Act of 2007, NHTSA developed the Not in Traffic Surveillance (NiTS) system to collect information about all non-traffic crashes, including non-traffic backover crashes. The purpose of this report is to provide a better understanding of the circumstances surrounding fatalities and injuries that occur in backovers and other backing crashes.
