The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published the toolkit in October 2020 to help Tribes in all phases of safety data improvement. Tribes can use the Self-Assessment tool to identify elements of safety data management that could be improved. The Crash Reporting Facts and Fictions Tool can further enhance the planning of safety data improvements by dispelling common barriers to crash data improvement. A data analysis tool describes common ways that safety data is used to improve transportation safety. Other tools contain the framework needed to establish a crash reporting system. These include a crash reporting form, officer’s instruction manual, database, quality control guide, and a manual that describes all of the available tools. All of these tools are available at no cost on the web page at https://www.tribalsafety.org/tribal-crash-reporting-toolkit .

The Tribal Crash Reporting Toolkit is being updated  and expanded through a special project.  More information can be found at  Tribal Crash Data Reporting Resources - Qk4, Inc.
