ACTION: Request for information.
AGENCY:
This notice requests
information from interested parties to
assist the agency in researching property
damage only (PDO) crash data collection
practices across the United States. State
statutes dictate that law enforcement
should complete a crash report for PDO
crashes meeting a set of criteria
including when damage is above a
certain dollar threshold that varies by
State. When a crash is below the
reportable threshold, States may allow
civilians to complete a crash report
designed specifically for them. In some
cases, jurisdictions within States have
stopped collecting PDO crashes in an
effort to save officer time and/or money.
Other jurisdictions have stopped
sending sworn officers to respond to
PDO crashes. However, the impacts of
these changes on crash data collection
are not well documented or understood.
NHTSA is seeking to identify States and
jurisdictions that have modified their
PDO crash reporting threshold or are
using citizen or non-sworn officers to
