Rhode Island S2480 makes traffic accident data a public record, subject to federal law.

Rhode Island S2480 amends the "Access to Public Records" chapter to classify traffic accident data as a public record, subject to federal law. This means that while the data is accessible to the public, its use is restricted by federal statutes. Public bodies can provide written notice of these restrictions when releasing the data. The act takes effect immediately upon passage.
