Crash Investigation SamplingSystem (CISS)
Randomly selects thousands of police
crash reports across the country
Representative sample
minor, serious, & fatal crashes

Crash Investigation SamplingSystem (CISS)
Event detials
Law enforcement agencies permit accesss to Police crash reports
key information on the location of the crash, the vehicles involved, and where the injured were taken for medical care
Confidential interviews with victims who were involved in crashes provide
crash details, insights into how crashes occur, the extent of injuries, treatment received, safety system performance, and
work time lost
Injury data
Medical community provides access to medical records
the primary source of data on the nature and severity of injuries
Vehicle data
Tow yards, repair facilities, and impound lots provide access to damaged vehicles.
CISS Crash Technicians photograph vehicles at these sites
measure vehicle damage, document safety systems, and record the sources of occupant injury.

CISS information utilization
usedby NHTSA and others for a variety of purposes:
Identifying existing and emerging highway safety problems;
the vehicle safety systems and designs;
Learning nature of crash-related injuries
relationship between the type
severity of a crash and resulting injuries
Assessing the effectiveness of motor vehicle standards and highway safety programs.
