Using the Twitter API, tweets were scrapped from the twitter handle @Ma3Route. Ma3Route is a mobile/web/SMS platform that crowdsources transport data and provides users with information on traffic, road traffic crash (RTC), matatu directions and driving reports. Users post RTC or traffic information to Ma3Route, where Ma3Route then publishes the post on Twitter. Tweets were obtained in order to identify tweets that reported RTC. This dataset includes a manually labelled dataset of a subset of tweets indicating which tweets report a crash and the location of crashes.
