The PR DTPW crash database is operated and managed by the Accident Analysis Office (AAO). The database consists of all the data entered in crash reports, representing more than 230,000 data entered per year from 1997 to 2011, except year 2001, with incomplete data for years 2010 and 2011. The limitations in the data gathering process of the AAO resulted in a serious evaluation of data fields needed to perform on a yearly based crash analysis in Puerto Rico. After this evaluation, performed with the help of the Traffic Engineering and Operational Area (PRHTA) and the PRTSC, the AAO reduced the fields entered in the database and began to use only Fatal and Injury crashes (F+I) for their crash analysis. In order to gather a tool for faster and deeper crash evaluations, the PRTSC has an agreement with the University of Puerto Rico (Río Piedras campus). Through the execution of this agreement, the University contracted the staff of the Center for Advanced Public Safety (CAPS) at the University of Alabama.

The Center for Advanced Public Safety, at The University of Alabama, is a research and development center dedicated to the use of information technology to help improve society by performing crime, accidents, and other analyses that impact people positively. CAPS has more than thirty years of experience in the traffic safety industry in the United States. The following products from CAPS have received the support from local and national government agencies in the USA:

 eCite: Comprehensive electronic citation issuance and processing system

o Mobile Officer’s Virtual Environment (MOVE): enables officers to operate their computer systems from anywhere on the highway

 eCrash: Electronic crash reporting and transmission procedure used with MOVE (gather and stores information)

 CARE: Data analysis software package used for problem identification and countermeasure development in traffic safety and others applications (criminal justice, emergency management, questionnaires, etc.)

The Critical Analysis Reporting Environment (CARE) is being used to provide to the decision-makers a practical report on crash analysis. This is because it is a crash data analysis software system that has an easy-to-use interface which turns data into information. This software has the following capabilities (CARE, 2014):

 Statistical Generation

 Data Analysis

 Information Mining Capability

 Analysis of Non-categorical Variables

 Narrative Data Searching (subject to data availability)

 Hotspot Determination

 Report Generation

 Collision Diagram Generation (subject to data availability)

 GIS Integration (subject to data availability)

Traditionally, agencies often maintain crash databases in the following three different tables: crash, vehicle, and person. The crash table includes all the attributes of the crash such as crash type, severity, roadway condition, weather condition, etc. The vehicle table includes specific details about the vehicles involved in the crash such as the vehicle type, make and model of the vehicle, etc. Finally, the person table includes details on all the road users involved in the crash and includes person-level information such as age, gender, seating position, etc. For example, a crash involving two vehicles with three occupants in the two vehicles will have one record in the crash table, two records in the vehicle table, and three records in the person table. Note that all these tables could be linked through a unique ID, the crash number or the PAR number.

For PR data, the DTPW and the CAPS personnel worked together to develop a crash database that integrates data from a group of the 108 tables of the database. In other words, the CARE database does not include separate tables for the crashes, vehicles, and occupants; all the important information is compiled into one table. Note that each record in this table corresponds to one crash. The future crash data entry improvements could include providing the complete relational database with the crash, vehicle, and person tables.

CARE version 10.0.0.22 has Puerto Rico crash data for years 2002 through 2009, and for year 2012. The database includes all crashes (i.e., fatal, injury, and property damage only (PDO) crashes) for the years 2002 to 2006 and only fatal and injury (F+I) crashes for the years 2007 to 2009 and 2012. More specifically, the following data variables and their attributes are included in CARE database:
