This report primarily focuses on an attempt to document the level of driver distraction existing in Kentucky through analysis of crash data and by conducting an observational survey of drivers. Additional research is cited as a means of comparing other studies with results from Kentucky, as well as establishing a definition of distracted driver. The status of laws related to use of cell phones in other states was summarized, and the recently passed legislation in Kentucky was noted by incorporation of the full text as an appendix. It was determined from analysis of Kentucky data that if the three categories of human factors (inattention, distraction, and cell phone) listed on the traffic collision report are combined, the total would be 53,223 collisions and 184 fatal collisions.
