The Not-in-Traffic Surveillance (NiTS) system is a virtual data collection system designed to provide counts and details regarding fatalities and injuries that occur in nontraffic crashes and in non-crash incidents. The NiTS 2007 system produced an overall annual estimate of 1,747 fatalities and 841,000 injuries in nontraffic crashes and noncrash incidents. The NiTS 2007 system provided information about an estimated 1,159 fatalities and 98,000 injuries that occurred in nontraffic crashes such as single-vehicle crashes on private roads, collisions with pedestrians on driveways, and two-vehicle crashes in parking facilities. The NiTS 2007 system also provided information about an annual average of 588 fatalities and 743,000 injuries in noncrash incidents involving passenger vehicle occupants or otherwise involving passenger vehicles. |
