Problem!
• Minnesota Motor Vehicle Crash Facts, 2008!– 455 fatalities down from 510 in 2007!– 33,379 injuries down from 35,318 in 2007!– Rural areas account for 2 out of 3 fatalities!– 1/3 involve single vehicle!– 2/3 involve 2 or more vehicles!– 2008 crashes cost Minnesota $1.5 billion!

Underlying Causes "• In Single Vehicle Crashes!
– Illegal or unsafe speed contributing factor most often cited for all drivers!
• In Multiple Vehicle Crashes!– For drivers through age 64 – driver inattention or
distraction most often cited!– Failure to yield second most common!
• Over Age 65 Pattern Reverses!– Failure to yield most common!– Driver inattention or distraction second most common!

Driving Conditions!• Most Crashes Occur in Good Driving Conditions!
– 54% of fatal and 2/3 of nonfatal occur during daylight hours!– Good Weather Conditions!
• 61% of fatal and 56% of nonfatal – “clear” weather!– Road Surface Condition for Fatal Crashes!
• Usually “good”!• 10% on wet roads!• 15% on snowy or icy roads!
– Road Surface Condition for Nonfatal Crashes!• 60% of nonfatal on dry roads!• 13% on wet roads!• 25% on snowy or icy roads!
