National Automotive Sampling System - Crashworthiness Data System (NASS-CDS) - NASS-CDS (multiyear)
The National Automotive Sampling System (NASS) Crashworthiness Data System (CDS) is a nationwide crash data collection program sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transportation. It is operated by the National Center for Statistics and Analysis (NCSA) of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The NASS CDS provides an automated, comprehensive national traffic crash database, and collects detailed information on a sample of all police-reported light ]motor vehicle traffic crashes. Data collection is accomplished at 24 geographic sites, called Primary Sampling Units (PSUs). These data are weighted to represent all police reported motor vehicle crashes occurring in the USA during the year involving passenger cars, light trucks and vans that were towed due to damage.
