It doesn’t need to be a hot day; when the temperature outside is as low as 60 degrees, the temperature inside a vehicle can reach 110 degrees.

The Crash Report Sampling System (CRSS) builds on the retiring, long-running National Automotive Sampling System General Estimates System (NASS GES). CRSS is a sample of police-reported crashes involving all types of motor vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists, ranging from property-damage-only crashes to those that result in fatalities. CRSS is used to estimate the overall crash picture, identify highway safety problem areas, measure trends, drive consumer information initiatives, and form the basis for cost and benefit analyses of highway safety initiatives and regulations.

NHTSA's Assessment Program provides technical assistance to State Highway Safety Offices, State Emergency Medical Services offices, and other State agencies. A team of outside experts conducts a comprehensive assessment of the highway safety program using an organized, objective approach and well-defined procedures that:
- Provide an overview of the program's current status in comparison to pre-established standards;
- Note the program’s strengths and weaknesses; and
- Provide recommendations for improvement.
Although a comparison is made to existing standards, the State may also request technical assistance that addresses unique concerns, as well as specialized expertise on the team. Not only does the assessment provide useful recommendations, the dialogue and report are also educational for the State and its highway safety customers. It is important the technical assessment process is open, collegial, and viewed by all as constructive and non-punitive.
