The Standard Traffic Collision Investigation Data Encoding Manual, Volume 3 of a three volume report entitled 'A State Accident Investigation Program,' describes the encoding system recommended for use by the states in conjunction with the Standard Police Traffic Collision Report form. The procedures described in the manual do not simply provide for a transfer of data from one form to another; they also provide for coding information which can be inferred from these data and information that appears in the narrative and diagram sections of the report. The encoding manual includes codes for four basic card types: Card Type One, general identifying information on the collision; Card Type Two, specific identifying information for each vehicle, vehicle operator, or pedestrian; Card Type Three, specific information about vehicles, pedestrians, drivers, and passengers including vehicle damage, occupant seat location, injury severity and seat belt data, motorcycle safety equipment, etc.; and Card Type Four, additional information required by individual agencies.
