N2  - The role of accident studies in roadside safety problem identification, the various levels of accident data available, and the problems associated with them are discussed in this paper. Police level accident data is useful for identifying the extent of safety problems but is limited in its usefulness for determining accident relationships or evaluating safety countermeasure effectiveness. Problems associated with police level accident data include location identification, definitions and reporting criteria, and accident report data elements.<p />
