Introduction
The data is supplied in fixed field ASCII format in three files (*Acc*.DAT containing
attendant circumstances records, *Veh*.DAT vehicles and *Cas*.DAT casualties).
The 13 character string from columns 1 to 13 inclusive gives a unique index number for each
accident. Casualties are linked to vehicles by “VEHREF”.
This data guide lists the value labels and for each variable and the character positions
Please call David Wilson (020 7944 6381) if you need any further details or if you find any
problems with the data.
