The Traffic Crash Reporting System (TCRS)
Traffic Crash Reporting – Collection of Crash Data
The Traffic Crash Reporting Unit (TCRU) is responsible for the complete, accurate, and timely collection,
processing, and compilations of statewide traffic crash data. The TCRU maintains the TCRS database that
serves as the central repository for all traffic crash data for the State of Michigan as well as the Michigan
Crash Analysis Tool (Mi-CAT). By law, all law enforcement agencies are required to submit qualifying
crash reports to the Michigan State Police (MSP).
The crash program has been in existence since Public Act 300 of 1949. All law enforcement agencies in
Michigan submit crash data to the MSP Criminal Justice Information Center (CJIC) utilizing the State of
Michigan Traffic Crash Report (UD-10) format.
The TCRU receives and processes approximately 315,000 crashes annually. The data collected from the
crash reports is used extensively by federal, state, and local traffic safety partners to identify traffic safety
problems and support the state's efforts to reduce crashes, fatalities, and injuries. Traffic crash data is geo
located using the Traffic Crash Mapping System (TCMS) and is supplied to the Michigan Department of
Transportation (MDOT) for analysis of high crash locations. The Michigan Department of Natural
Resources (MDNR) also receives data for analysis of snowmobile, off-road vehicle (ORV), and car/deer
crashes.
Traffic crash reports are processed and sent to the Michigan Department of State (MDOS) to be applied to
individual driving records. Fatal records are maintained on both the state system and the federal Fatality
Analysis Reporting System (FARS) which is supported by the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA).
The UD-10 is used to report all traffic related motor vehicle crashes. The criteria for a reportable traffic
crash involves a motor vehicle that was in transport and on the roadway, which resulted in death, injury, or
property damage of $1,000, or more. The UD-10 is also used to record any crash involving a snowmobile
or ORV, whether traffic or non-traffic related. The property damage criteria for a snowmobile or ORV crash
is $100 or more.
Exclusions include deliberate intent (i.e., self-inflicted injury, road rage, insurance fraud) or legal
intervention (i.e., pit-maneuver, deliberate acts engaged by law enforcement).
Individual UD-10s can be accessed by involved parties and their representatives through the Traffic Crash
Purchasing System (TCPS) website. Specific search criteria are required to purchase a copy of a UD-10.
Each year, the TCRS database is “frozen” on a specific date to allow for publishing of the annual traffic
crash statistics. This frozen dataset was created on April 25, 2024, for the 2023 annual report. Questions
regarding this report can be directed to the TCRU at CrashTCRS@michigan.gov.

Crash Type
Description: The Crash Type describes how the vehicles involved in the crash contacted the other unit(s).
For multiple impact crashes, only the first Crash Type is recorded.
Note: Crash Type is based on the direction of travel prior to impact, regardless of the point(s) of impact or
direction the vehicles ultimately face after the crash. Damaged area on the vehicle alone does not
determine the Crash Type.

Hazardous Action
Description: The Hazardous Action field indicates if, in the investigating officer's opinion, a person is "at
fault" in any way, i.e., did the person's actions contribute to the crash? The officer is instructed to choose
the most significant Hazardous Action that applies. If a Hazardous Action does not exist, NONE can be
selected. Crashes involving more than one driver can result in multiple Hazardous Actions reported. The
totals listed below are counting reported Hazardous Actions for the drivers and not total crashes.
Note: Since Hazardous Action and Citation Issued are completely independent of each other, an entry can
be made for Hazardous Action even if no tickets were issued or no physical arrest was made. Citation
Issued is used to record what tickets were issued to the driver and Hazardous Action is used to record the
driver’s actions that contributed to or caused the crash.

Section 5:
Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS)
The FARS gathers data on the most severe traffic crashes that occur each year - those that result in
loss of human life.
The system was conceived, designed, and developed by the National Center for Statistics and
Analysis (NCSA) of the NHTSA to provide an overall measure of highway safety, to help identify
traffic safety problems, to suggest solutions, and to help provide an objective basis on which to
evaluate the effectiveness of motor vehicle safety standards and highway safety programs.
FARS became operational in 1975 and contains data on fatal traffic crashes within 50 States, the
District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. To be included in FARS, a crash must involve a motor vehicle
traveling on a trafficway open to the public and must result in the death of a person (vehicle occupants
or non-motorist). Any fatal crash involving a snowmobile or ORV shall be submitted to FARS,
regardless of where it occurred.
The FARS file contains descriptions, in a standard format, of each fatal crash reported. Each crash
has more than 100 different coded data elements that characterize the crash, the vehicles, and the
people involved. The specific data elements may be modified slightly each year to conform to
changing user needs, vehicle characteristics, and highway safety emphasis areas. The FARS
analyst reviews the UD-10 to complete all data elements reported on five forms:
The Crash Form contains specific information such as the time and location of the crash,
the first harmful event, the number of vehicles and people involved, and the weather
conditions.
The Vehicle Form contains data on each vehicle involved in the crash. Specific data
includes the vehicle type, role in the crash, initial and principal impact points, the most
harmful event, whether it is a hit-and-run crash, and whether a school bus was involved.
The Driver Form contains driver’s record and license status including mandated Commercial
Drivers License information.
The Person Form contains data on each person involved in the crash: his or her age and
sex, role in the crash (i.e., driver, passenger, non-motorist), alcohol and drug involvement,
injury severity, and restraint use.
The Pre-Crash Form contains data describing roadway attributes, driver’s actions, and
details prior to the first harmful event.
The data collected within FARS do not include any personal identifying information such as names,
addresses, or social security numbers. Thus, any data kept in FARS files are made available to the
public to fully conform to the Privacy Act laws. An overview of FARS data is published in various fact
sheets and in an annual report. These are all available to the public. The annual report contains a
comprehensive analysis of the year’s data and includes some past year’s data with comparative
analyses.
Michigan has participated in the FARS program since its inception. The FARS analyst gathers,
translates, and enters data directly into NHTSA’s central computer data file. Data is automatically
checked when entered for acceptable range values and for consistency.
FARS data is used extensively within NHTSA; and, requests are received from sources such as state
and local governments, research organizations, private citizens, the auto and insurance industries,
Congress, and the media. Specific FARS data uses include the evaluation of:

Alcohol related legislation
Motorcycle helmet legislation
Restraint usage legislation
Speed limit laws
Vehicle safety designs
Large truck safety
Air bag effectiveness
FARS data can be accessed at the state level by the FARS analyst to respond to state safety
issues. Users may request specific data from the NCSA at no charge for most requests, generally
within two weeks (allowing more time for complex or lengthy reports). Also, users can obtain a file
on computer tape in one of several formats amenable to analysis. The FARS website address is:

Section 5:
Injury Code Index
An injury selection must be made for each driver/person that is recorded as a unit. The injury recorded
should be based on the latest information available at the time the report was completed.
K Fatal Injury (K) – A fatal injury is any injury that results in death within 30 days after the motor
vehicle crash in which the injury occurred.
A Suspected Serious Injury (A) – A suspected serious injury is any injury other than fatal which
results in one or more of the following:
Severe laceration resulting in exposure of underlying tissues/muscle/organs
Resulting in significant loss of blood
Broken or distorted extremity (arm or leg)
Crush injuries
Suspected skull, chest, or abdominal injury other than bruises or minor lacerations
Significant burns (second and third degree burns over 10 percent or more of the body)
Unconsciousness when taken from the crash scene
Paralysis
B Suspected Minor Injury (B) – A minor injury is any injury that is evident at the scene of the
crash, other than fatal or serious injuries. Examples include lump on the head, abrasions,
bruises, minor lacerations (cuts on the skin surface with minimal bleeding and no exposure of
deeper tissue/muscle).
C Possible Injury (C) – A possible injury is any injury reported or claimed which is not a fatal,
suspected serious or suspected minor injury. Examples include: momentary loss of
consciousness, claim of injury, limping, or complaint of pain or nausea. Possible injuries are
those that are reported by the person or are indicated by his/her behavior, but no wounds or
injuries are readily evident.
O No Apparent Injury (O) – No apparent injury is a situation where there is no reason to believe
that the person received any bodily harm from the motor vehicle crash. There is no physical
evidence of injury, and the person does not report any change in normal function.
