FOREWORD

Traffic records improvement projects have been ongoing to streamline the process of data collection and processing. Current projects such as the Traffic Crash Reporting System (TCRS) Modernization and the Traffic Records Data Linkage strive to improve the quality, timeliness, and accuracy of data outputs, as well as integration of traffic records data systems.

New technologies, including electronic data collection, increased error checking, quality assurance, and crash locating, are continually emerging and improving. By utilizing these technologies as they become available, the quality of Michigan’s traffic records data will continue to improve. Please visit Michigantrafficcrashfacts.org for easy access to crash data from 1992-2013.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The 2013 traffic fatality count was 951, up 1.6 percent from the 2012 figure of 936. Compared with 2012, injuries were up 0.7 percent and total crashes were up 1.3 percent. These figures translated into a fatality rate of 1.00 per 100 million miles of travel, up 0.01 percent from 2012, and below the 10-year average of 1.01 (2004-2013). Exposure factors in 2013 showed increases in vehicle miles traveled, vehicle registrations, and licensed drivers. Vehicle miles traveled were up 0.9 percent to 95.1 billion, motor vehicle registrations increased 0.8 percent to 8.2 million, and the number of licensed drivers was up 0.5 percent to 7.1 million. Seat belt use in Michigan was observed at 93.0 percent. Alcohol-involved crashes continued to present a problem and contributed to 29.2 percent of all fatal crashes. Crashes involving alcohol made up 3.4 percent of all crashes, and while 18.3 percent of all crashes resulted in injury or death, 30.7 percent of alcohol-involved crashes resulted in injury or death. Information compiled in this report was gathered from the Michigan Traffic Crash Report forms (UD-10) submitted by local police departments, sheriff offices, and the Michigan Department of State Police. Other related information was obtained from the Departments of Transportation, State, and Community Health. The University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute produced this publication with data on file at the Michigan Department of State Police Criminal Justice Information Center as of March 23, 2014. We acknowledge, with appreciation, all involved agencies for their assistance.

The officer receiving the report, or his or her commanding officer, shall immediately forward each report to the director of the Department of State Police on forms prescribed by the director of the Department of State Police (State of Michigan Traffic Crash Report, also known as the UD-10). The forms shall be completed in full by the investigating officer. The director of the Department of State Police shall analyze each report relative to the cause of the reported accident and shall prepare information compiled from reports filed under this section for public use. A copy of the report under this section . . . shall be retained for at least three years at the local police department, sheriff's department, or local state police post making the report. (As the repository of the UD-10s submitted by all Michigan law enforcement agencies, the Department of State Police processes all UD-10s received at the Criminal Justice Information Center (CJIC). CJIC retains an electronic copy of UD-10s for 10 years plus the current processing year. Electronic databases containing information from UD-10s prior to this time period are purged.) MCL 257.624, Amended 1980 - (1) A report required by this chapter shall not be available for use in a court action, but a report shall be for the purpose of furnishing statistical information regarding the number and cause of accidents. (2) The Office of Highway Safety Planning (OHSP) may authorize scientific studies and research for the reduction of death, injury, and property losses. All information, records of interviews, written reports, statements, notes, memoranda, or other data collected pursuant to the scientific studies and research conducted by the state, or by other persons, agencies, or organizations authorized by OHSP shall be used solely for the purpose of medical or scientific research and shall not disclose the name or identity of a person unless the person authorizes, in writing, the use of his or her name or identity. If a subject of the research study is deceased, the executor or heir of the deceased person may authorize, in writing, the disclosure of the deceased's name or identity. The furnishing of information to OHSP or to a representative of an authorized study or research project shall not subject a person, hospital, sanitarium, rest home, nursing home, or other person or agency furnishing the information to any action for damages or other relief. The information, records, reports, statements, notes, memoranda, or other data shall not be admissible as evidence in a court or before any other tribunal, board, agency, or person. A person participating in an authorized study or research project shall not disclose, directly or indirectly, the information so obtained except in strict conformity with the research project.

HBD Fatal Crashes by Day of Week

Friday and Saturday had the most fatal crashes while Saturday and Sunday had the highest proportions of drinking-related fatal crashes in 2013. On Sunday, 46.5 percent of the fatal crashes involved drinking, while only 16.7 percent of the fatal crashes on Tuesday involved drinking.

Not surprisingly, the 12:00 AM to 2:59 AM time period had the highest rate of drinking involvement (60.0%), while the 9:00 AM to 11:59 AM time period had the lowest (5.7%).

Note: This chart excludes two HBD fatal crashes where time of day was unknown.

HBD Injury Crashes by Time of Day

HBD injury crashes follow the same basic trends as total crashes during the work week, but the weekend sees a dramatic increase in the proportion of HBD injury crashes to total injury crashes.

Total injury crash frequencies peak in the hours between 3:00 PM and 5:59 PM, while HBD injury crash frequencies peak between midnight and 2:59 AM (a particularly hazardous travel period). These frequencies exclude 29 injury crashes (including four HBD injury crashes) where time of day was unknown.

HEAVY TRUCK/BUS INVOLVED CRASHES

These crashes involve a heavy truck/bus - defined as having a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) over 10,000 lbs.

Heavy truck/bus crashes differ from other vehicle crashes in a number of ways, many reflecting the size and use of these vehicles. When compared to the overall crash picture, heavy truck/bus crashes involve:

more turning, backing, and changing lanes as the Truck/Bus Driver Action Prior.

more collisions with fixed object = bridge/pier/abutments, nonfixed object = parked motor vehicles, jackknife, cargo loss/shift, and other non-collisions as the Most Harmful Event.

fewer collisions with fixed objects = ditches, trees, and nonfixed object = animals.

fewer single-vehicle crashes but more sideswipes.

fewer drivers indicated to be speeding, failing to yield, reckless driving, disregarding traffic control, and unable to stop in assured clear distance, but more drivers indicated to be making backing, lane use, and turning errors.

fewer crashes outside of the shoulder/curb.

more crashes between the hours of 6:00 AM and 2:59 PM, and fewer crashes between 3:00 PM and 5:59 AM.

more weekday crashes, and a significant drop in weekend crashes.

2011 Michigan motor vehicle crash data represents the last full year of data that was collected during Michigan’s universal helmet law, enacted in 1969: Michigan Vehicle Code Public Act 300 of 1949, Section 257.658, requiring all motorcycle riders to wear a helmet. On April 13, 2012, Michigan changed their helmet law from a universal to a partial helmet law. The partial law allows some certified Michigan riders, who are over 21 and carry additional insurance, to ride without a helmet.
