The NYSDMV maintains statistical data about motor vehicle accidents, vehicle registrations and drivers.

Motor Vehicle Accidents

The accident data are compiled from the written accident reports of motorists and police agencies. The accident data are released after a complete calendar year is compiled. The data for the years 1995 - 2006 are currently available.

Some of the other information, for example, the numbers for population and road miles, are collected from other government agencies.

NOTE:  The total number of accidents was less in the year 2002 than in the year 2001.  Property Damage Accidents that law enforcement agencies reported were not included in the year 2002.
