  • Abstract:
    The South Dakota Motor Vehicle Traffic Accident Summary was developed to provide

    an overview of the South Dakota traffic accident picture, as well as make frequently

    requested information available. Information from 2000 comprises the major portion of

    the book; however, basic historic trends are also provided for reference.

    The Motor Vehicle Traffic Accident Summary is divided into two main sections,

    Historical Trends and 2000 Motor Vehicle Traffic Accident Profile. The Historical Trend

    section provides information on alcohol involvement in motor vehicle accidents,

    severity of injury by record type and sex of drivers involved in accidents. This section

    also provides data on restraint usage and accident trends. The 2000 Traffic Accident

    Profile section details the accident picture for 2000 as well as a glossary of terms.

    The majority of the information in this book is provided by the Accident Records

    Section within the Department of Transportation. Current state law requires an

    accident report be filed for each motor vehicle traffic accident resulting in the death or

    injury of a person, or property damage to an apparent extent of one thousand

    dollars or more to any one person's property or two thousand dollars

    accumulated damage per accident. (The reporting threshold for property damage

    only accidents increased from $500 to $1,000 on July 1, 2000). Law enforcement

    agencies provide the accident reports to Accident Records. These reports are available

    to the public for a search fee of four dollars.
