Main Goal:

The main goal of TREDS (Traffic Records Electronic Data System) is to provide accurate, timely and detailed highway safety information for analysis and reporting. The data from TREDS is used to support Virginia’s efforts to reduce crashes, injuries, fatalities and associated costs. Through TREDS, Virginia now has one of the most effective and innovative information technology tools in the nation to identify and address its highway safety concerns.

This state-of-the-art, automated data system centralizes all of Virginia’s crash data and related information. A recent enhancement to the system’s mapping tool, now allows users to combine safety program areas, such as impaired driving and speed, and it also allows agencies to focus on the crash data in their jurisdiction whereas in the past, users have only been able to narrow the data down to the county level.

 
Importance of Traffic Crash Data:

The comprehensive data housed in TREDS is the foundation of highway safety in Virginia. The information serves as a performance measurement tool that reflects Virginia's efforts to improve highway safety. TREDS traffic crash information can be used to:

  • Conduct problem identification and the development of resolutions for safety programs

  • Create and implement effective, integrated safety programs and initiatives

  • Conduct education and awareness initiatives

  • Make executive management decisions

  • Award and target federal highway safety funding

  • Make key legislative decisions that impact citizen safety on our roadways

  • Targeting local and state law enforcement efforts

  • Make engineering and construction improvements to our roadways

  • Work with partnering organizations to develop coordinated, innovative approaches to improve highway safety

TREDS will pave the way for Virginia’s effort to develop and implement effective safety programs that will make Virginia's roadways among the safest in the country.
