Tell NHTSA: Align Traffic Crash Data with a Safe System Approach!
Submit a model comment created by Salud America! on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on revisions to the Model Minimum Uniform Crash Criteria (MMUCC), a voluntary guideline of standardized crash data variables for state and local agencies to consider collecting.
The proposed revision to the MMUCC does not fully address insufficient and inconsistent crash data because it fails to align with USDOT’s recent adoption of the
Safe System Approach, which is a public health approach to prevent crashes from happening and minimize the harm caused when crashes do occur.
As with public health efforts, the Safe System Approach emphasizes prevention. The focus is on systemic change to create a built environment where simple mistakes do not result in serious injuries or deaths.
