Providing access to annual state crash data.
Through its Michigan Traffic Crash Facts (MTCF) program, UMTRI provides public access to state crash data and provides sponsors with statistical analysis, visualization, and interpretation of all forms of transportation data.
The Michigan State Police Criminal Justice Information Center (CJIC) and the Office of Highway Safety Planning, in conjunction with the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI), compiles and publishes the annual crash data.
The MTCF website is a five-time winner of the Best Traffic Records Web Page award presented by the Association of Transportation Safety Information Professionals (ATSIP).
