GHSA worked with NHTSA to help states determine how well each state's Police Accident Report (PAR) and crash database aligns with the Model Minimum Uniform Crash Criteria (MMUCC) 4th edition and to develop a new tool to help states map their state PARs and crash databases to the 77 MMUCC data elements and attributes collected at the scene of a crash and the 33 data elements and attributes that are linked with other databases or derived from MMUCC data elements.
The resulting document, Mapping to MMUCC, was piloted in two states, New Jersey and Utah, and feedback was incorporated into the final version of the document. The results from this mapping process, along with additional feedback received from states during the development process, will be used to revise the existing MMUCC elements and the mapping process methodology will be incorporated into the Fifth Edition of the MMUCC Guideline.
