sDistracted Driving Crashes
Prior to 2011, police crash reports captured general distracted/inattentive driving factors, and 10,000+distraction/inattention related crashes were reported annually. During 2011, Maine switched to an updated crash report in line with national guidance that now reports on specic distracted practices, but does not include generic inattention, greatly reducing the reported number of distracted crashes. Distracted driving behaviors are usually self-reported. In 2016, Maine's Crash Report added a 'Distracted by Unknown Cause' element.
