A friend's question:
Are there data about automobile accidents over the course of a year with daily increments and preferably with a large variety of filters like city, highway, etc?

California Polytechnic State University has a downloaded dataset on fatal accidents on the national highway system for the year 2007:
https://wiki.csc.calpoly.edu/datasets/wiki/HighwayAccidents
Data.Gov has a number of datasets on accident data by state: https://explore.data.gov/catalog/raw?tags=crash
The NHTSA has summary statistics for 2012 on a state by state basis here: http://www-nrd.nhtsa.dot.gov/departments/nrd-30/ncsa/STSI/USA%20WEB%20REPORT.HTM
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has accident/safety ratings per make/model/year, but you will have to scrap it off their site: http://www.iihs.org/iihs/ratings
Some of the city level open data portals also publish traffic accident datasets:
Denver: http://data.opencolorado.org/dataset/city-and-county-of-denver-traffic-accidents
Seattle: https://data.seattle.gov/Public-Safety/Traffic-Accidents/7ayk-pspk
The UK data.gov publishes accident/road safety datasets from 1979 to present here: http://data.gov.uk/dataset/road-accidents-safety-data
I put together an online catalog of sites covering traffic surveys and traffic accidents: http://www.opengeocode.org/opendata/traffic.php

Injury epidemiologist here. I don't see hsisinfo.org on this list - it's where I get the actual / individual crashes themselves, including locations. You'll need a data request. But it sounds like you want aggregate data, not individual crash records. Still, wanted to add this to the answer for future searchers. Nov 1, 2018 at 18:37
Not sure if my list is better (or worse), because I think it has a lot to do with Andrew's question about national/state levels. If Andrew says it's cool, I'll just have him update his answer with these links:

Not sure if you need something for the entire nation, but a lot of localities publish versions of this kind of data.
Two examples: http://www.state.nj.us/transportation/refdata/accident/rawdata01-03.shtm http://nypd.openscrape.com/#/
Good luck!
Update (May 2019): Check this new release: https://smoosavi.org/datasets/us_accidents. It contains more than 2.25 million traffic accident records which took place within the US, and will be periodically updated.
The following dataset is recently released and will be periodically updated: https://smoosavi.org/datasets/2019_traffic_weather_events
It covers the entire U.S, and also contains information about other types of traffic events in addition to accidents, such as congestion, construction, etc.
If you want point-level data on crashes (but only for select states), I recommend submitting a data use request to the folks at the Highway Safety Information System (https://www.hsisinfo.org/) . I use that data to do small area research in NC.
