Publisher Description: The Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) is the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's census of motor vehicle crash fatalities in the United States and its territories. This paper seeks to explain the implementation of the re-coding process, in which previously entered cases were sampled and re-coded by select, experienced FARS analysts to check the accuracy and performance of the original analysts. The goal of the re-coding process is to enhance the quality control process to maintain accurate, complete, and timely FARS data. |
