This map displays collisions from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) in 2009. It is a simple demonstration that maps the collisions by utilizing the latitude and longitude coordinates included in FARS. More information on FARS data and relevant links to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) sites are provided on the FARS resource page.

The set of chart and map visualizations provide different ways to explore FARS collision fatality data and incorporate data from the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS). Collision counts and rates (per VMT and population) are shown over time and by state. The visualizations can identify potential trends that would benefit from further analysis.
