Website tracks the really big hits


For those wanting to know about risky places to drive, bike or walk, UC Berkeley researchers have designed a tool for sorting through and mapping all of the serious traffic collisions in the state.

Anyone with Internet access can search the Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) for a look at where more than 130,000 serious and fatal crashes in California have occurred.

UC Berkeley's John Bigham explains this new tool in a slideshow here.
