The UMTRI dataset of Trucks Involved in Fatal Accidents, 1980-86, provides detailed descriptions of all medium and heavy (i.e., with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 10,000 pounds) trucks involved in a fatal accident in the continental United States, excluding Alaska, during calendar years 1980 through 1986. In particular, it gives information on the vehicle and cargo that is not contained in the computerized data from the Fatal Accident Reporting System. The UMTRI file is a combination of telephone surveys, mail surveys, Office of Motor Carriers accident reports matched with FARS cases, and supplementary data coded from police accident reports.
