The National Automotive Sampling System (NASS) General Estimates System, operated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, is responsible for producing national estimates for all types of motor vehicle traffic crashes that occur throughout the United States each year. The objective of this research note is to validate the GES estimate on the total number of motor vehicle traffic crashes occurring annually. The method used was to compare an annual GES estimate with numbers of motor vehicle traffic crashes reported by the 50 States and the District of Columbia in the same year.
