The Safety Data Improvement Program provides discretionary grants to States for activities to improve the accuracy, timeliness and completeness of safety data including, but not limited to, large truck and bus crash data, roadside inspection, data enforcement data, driver citation data, and registration data. Funds can be used to purchase equipment, train law enforcement officers in collecting crash data, hire temporary staff to manage data quality improvement programs, revise outdated crash report forms, and code and enter crash data.
