At the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) our Strategic Plan is “Your Safety, Your Mobility, Your Economic Opportunity.” ITD is committed to providing the safest transportation system possible. Each year progress is made to eliminate death and seri-ous injuries (SI) on Idaho’s highways. Traffic safety professionals have addressed behaviors, infrastructure improvements and enforcement countermeasures to reduce crashes. The goal, “Toward Zero Deaths,” is the foundation upon which we work.

All data and tables are 5 years of data, (2014-2018) except for the Fatalities and Suspected Serious Injuries graph which is 10 years of data (2009-2018). The source of the crash information is the ITD statewide crash database which consists of crash re-ports completed by all law enforcement agencies in Idaho.
