The Fatal Accident Reporting System (FARS) gathers data on the most severe traffic accidents that occur each year--those that result in loss of human life. It supplies the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) with information that is invaluable to its efforts to reduce the number of traffic accidents and the losses that result from them. These data are essential to NHTSA's need to effect these reductions: evaluate existing and proposed highway and motor vehicle safety standards, identify traffic safety problems, and to establish better ways of dealing with those problems.
