Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: The Model State Traffic Records System (MTRS) was developed to integrate information now stored in different forms and systems through the state, to integrate operations of various agencies, and to reduce duplication of effort by different entities. MTRS also aids in comprehensive planning and evaluation. Highway safety problems are isolated by applying accident and UTC data supported by roadway environment, driver, and vehicle background information to (a) location analysis techniques to identify hazardous locations and (b) standard statistical analysis techniques to identify patterns that indicate possible problem areas. Details of the MTRS data base are summarized.
