The
Division of Government Research (DGR)
maintains a comprehensive traffic
crash (traffic accident) database for the state of New Mexico.
The
New Mexico Department of Transportation's
(NM DOT)
Transportation Statistics Bureau is responsible for the initial compilation
and processing of this data.
The
New Mexico Traffic Safety Bureau (TSB) and the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
have been providing grant funding to DGR for over twenty years to
provide further maintenance and analysis of this traffic crash database.
Although DGR performs this work at UNM, the New Mexico Traffic Safety Bureau
is the designated state government agency responsible for disseminating this
information to other government agencies, the state legislature, and the public.
Great appreciation is due to the many dedicated police officers
throughout the state who are responsible for investigating traffic crashes
and collecting this information. Without their hard work and professionalism
most of the information presented here would not be available.
This website represents a developing project on the part of the
New Mexico Traffic Safety Bureau to make traffic crash information more
accessible to the public and other government agencies. However, only
selected information is currently available. Much more information
will be added as this resource is developed.
The 2008 traffic crash data are the most recent available from
the
New Mexico Department of Transportation's (NM DOT),
Transportation Statistics Bureau.
The website is being updated to include 2008 data as of July 2010.
PLEASE NOTE:
Our older Web and ArcIMS server (dgrarc) has died and some of the 2001
through 2004 interactive maps are no longer available. We will not
restore these services. Only 2005 through 2007 data will be available in
the future. The links to older than 2005 maps will be removed as we update
this site with 2008 maps.
Please Note:
If the specific information you need is not present, you can request it from the New Mexico Traffic Safety Bureau. The New Mexico Traffic Safety Bureau can be contacted as follows:

DGR is currently preparing dynamic/interactive mapping and
data display facilities using
ESRI's ArcIMS.
Many of these demonstrations are available below.
These demonstrations are in the process of being revised.
If they are not available please try again later.
In addition to the various formats (HTML, JAVA,
and ArcMap) used for these ArcIMS demonstrations, there is also
a version of these demonstrations available in ESRI's new ArcReader
format. ArcReader is a free, easy-to-use product that allows anyone
to view, explore, and print published map files (PMFs). You can
click here to download ArcReader. You can find these
ArcReader demonstrations in the statewide and urban map pages
accesible from the links provided in the Maps and GIS
section below.

The New Mexico Traffic Safety Bureau is interested in sponsoring innovative
research concerning traffic safety related issues and promoting the use of
traffic safety data by local communities and government agencies.
There are federal funded
grants available for researchers that present acceptable research proposals.
Cooperative data use agreements can also be arranged so that local government
agencies can obtain this data.
Please contact the New Mexico Traffic Bureau for more information.
The following types of data files are
available.

Data Files
DGR maintains a series of traffic crash data files for the New Mexico Traffic
Safety Bureau (TSB). These files are in Statistical Analysis System
(SAS) format. Portions of these files can be converted to several other
formats such as dBase(dbf) and Arc/INFO-ArcView if necessary.
SAS and other export files or coverages for selected portions of this data are
available for those conducting specialized traffic safety research projects and
other government (local communities) agencies.

Maps and GIS
DGR has developed a transportation oriented Geographic Information System
(GIS) for displaying maps of traffic crash data. This GIS called the
Geographic Road Network Database
(GRNDB) can produce maps of the
entire state, selected counties, special regions, or selected urban areas.
