NATIONAL FLEET SAFETY CONTEST
With ten months of the contest completed, we are holding at fourth position of eight fleets. our rate is 4.91 accidents per million miles and our group's average is 5.38. We had 48 "reportable" accidents during those 10 months. In NSC nomenclature, a "reportable accident" is any occurrance involving our motor vehicles which results in death, injury or property damage, unless such vehicle was properly parked.

The tapes also contain the NCIC number (NIC) of the record in which each VIN appears and the date of theft (DOT) of the vehicle described in that record. Each agency requested the tapes for comparison with department of motor vehicle (DMV) files to locate vehicles registered and licensed within the state while in a stolen~atus. In one state where this comparison was made, 560 "hits" resulted and in each instance the vehicle involved was registered after the DOT in another state. Some of these thefts had occurred 10 years before. FBI investigation under the Federal Interstate Transportation of Stolen Motor Vehicle Statute was instituted. As of November 21, 1972, 237 of the 560 vehicles had been located and their recovery value was estimated to be $250,570. Also, the operation of three separate auto theft rings was dis closed; Federal prosecution of several individuals is expected in each ring case. Magnetic tapes of VINs in the NCIC Stolen Vehicle File will be made available for comparison with DMV records upon request of any state control agency in a state having automated auto registration records. Direct letters of request to Federal Bureau of Investigation, Attention: NCIC, Washington, D.C. 20535. To assure receiving an up-to-date listing, please include the month (and day if known) in which the comparison with DMV records is expected to be made.
