Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) Final Release - Accidents
The Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) 2023 Final Release - Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents dataset was compiled from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023 by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). This geospatial dataset is the accident file from the FARS 2023 Final Release Data. The Final Release Data is published 12-15 months, after the initial release of FARS, and could contain additional fatal accidents due to the delay in police reporting, toxicology reports, etc., along with changes to attribute information for previously reported fatal accidents. This data file contains information about crash characteristics and environmental conditions at the time of the crash. There is one record per crash. A data dictionary, or other source of attribute information, is accessible at https://doi.org/10.21949/1518753
