NHTSA - Vehicle Safety Research
This collection includes reports from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Office of Vehicle Safety Research program. NHTSA’s Office of Vehicle Safety Research program's mission is to strategize, plan, and implement research programs to continually further the Agency's goals in reduction of crashes, fatalities, and injuries. Research is prioritized based on potential for crash/fatality/injury reductions and is aligned with Congressional Mandates, DOT, and NHTSA goals. More information on the program can be found at https://www.nhtsa.gov/research-data
