Our Nation's Travel
The NHTS is the authoritative source of national data on the travel behavior of the American public. The dataset allows analysis of daily
travel by all modes, including characteristics of the people traveling, their household, and their vehicles. The project is funded and managed
by the Federal Highway Administration Office of Policy and Information.
