Law Enforcement and Traffic Engineering Officials Receive Training on a Web-Based Crash Analysis Program
WATERFORD–In a continued effort to reduce traffic crashes in the state of Michigan, the Traffic Improvement Association (TIA) hosted a training session for the users of its newest Traffic Crash Analysis Tool (TCAT 2.0) on Monday. The four-hour training session, which was held at the Oakland County Executive Office Building in Waterford, was designed to teach law enforcement and traffic engineering officials the capabilities of the new program.
“Since 1967, TIA has made the availability of accurate and timely traffic crash data a high priority,” said Susan M. Cischke, group vice president of Sustainability, Environment, and Safety Engineering at Ford Motor Company, and chair of the TIA Board of Directors. “With the advancement of computerized technology, TIA has made significant progress.”
