Motor Vehicle Prioritizing Interventions and Cost Calculator for States (MV PICCS) is a free interactive web tool that estimates the costs of implementing up to 14 motor vehicle evidence-based strategies, while taking into account a state's specific budget. The strategies included in MV PICCS are:

This widget, based on this tool, provides the number of injuries prevented, lives saved, and costs averted from implementing motor vehicle strategies in your state.
