AP Statistics Semester 2 State Project:

NHTSA’s Strategies to develop and implement vehicle and driver countermeasures, evaluate motor vehicle standards, and to study crash avoidance issues, crashworthiness issues, and regulations.

Linking Up Crash Data -The State Data Program (SDP) supports NHTSA’s efforts to identify traffic safety

problems, help develop and implement vehicle and driver countermeasures, evaluate motor vehicle standards,

and to study crash avoidance issues, crashworthiness issues, and regulations.

Crash OUtCOme Data Evaluation System Injuries resulting from motor

vehicle crashes remain a major public health problem. These injuries cause unnecessary burden of increased

taxes and insurance premiums. They can be prevented, or reduced, but only if we understand their type,

severity and cost in relation to the characteristics of the crash, vehicles, and persons involved. Crash data

alone do not indicate the injury problem in terms of the medical and financial consequences. By linking crash,

vehicle, and behavior characteristics to their specific medical and financial outcomes, we can identify

prevention factors.

Statistics

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), “A motor vehicle crash is

considered to be alcohol-related if at least one driver or non-occupant (such as a pedestrian or

pedalcyclist) involved in the crash is determined to have had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .01

gram per deciliter (g/dL) or higher. Thus, any fatality that occurs in an alcohol-related crash is

considered an alcohol-related fatality. The term ‘alcohol-related‘ does not indicate that a crash or fatality

was caused by the presence of alcohol.” **A driver involved in a motor vehicle crash is considered

alcohol-impaired if he or she exhibits a BAC of .08 or greater.

Before you start, save the example file and rename this file as YOURLASTNA1\/IE_DUI Stats

1) Each student will research DUI statistics for a different one of the fifty states.

 

2) Students will research several websites for laws, penalties and data on driving fatalities associated

with alcohol such as wvvw.alcoholalert.com or http://alcoholpolicyniaaa.nih.gov/ or

http://www2.potsdam.edu/hansondj/DrinkingAndDriving.html

Statistics

3) The main statistical components of the project are regression analysis, finding the best model, a two-

proportion z-test comparing to California, and a two-proportion z-interval. Minor statistical components

are boxplot and histogram.

Statistics

0 Introduction: What did the research reveal about the DUI laws and penalties for your

state? Any other interesting discoveries? How does this compare to California? How do the

2012* proportions of DUI fatalities in your state compare to California? Use a one-tailed

two-proportion z-test and two-proportion z-interval.

Copy data from http1//www.alcohol alert.com/drunk-driving-statistics-taxes.html change state name!

and paste into columns into EXCEL spreadsheet and analyze the alcohol-related fatalities for the state

that was chosen. Find the alcohol-related proportions by dividing the column of alcohol-related fatalities by the

total fatalities in each year. Explanation of the data collected* by your research.

Make a boxplot of the DUI fatalities for your state for the years from 1982 to 2012 and comment

on the features of the boxplot. Make a histogram of the DUI fatalities (same data as the box plot).

Compare and contrast the features of the histogram display to the box-plot.

Find six comparisons between your chosen state and California that was found in the 2012 State

of Drunk Driving Fatalities in America.
