Description: The Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), which became operational in 1975, contains data on a census of fatal traffic crashes within the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. To be included in FARS, a crash must involve a motor vehicle traveling on a trafficway customarily open to the public, and must result in the death of an occupant of a vehicle or a nonoccupant within 30 days of the crash. FARS has been geocoded since 2002. FARS Analytical User’s Manual: https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/813556
