This booklet is published by the Missouri State Highway Patrol as an aid to persons who are interested in the traffic crash problem in Missouri. It contains information which provides for a comprehensive look at the Statewide crash problems as experienced in 2017 and 2018. The Missouri State Highway Patrol is the central traffic crash data collection agency for the State of Missouri. Data on both rural and urban traffic crashes is made available to this agency. Law enforcement agencies throughout the State provide the Highway Patrol with copies of their crash reports. All reports of traffic crashes including those investigated by the Missouri State Highway Patrol are tabulated and analyzed by this agency. It is thus due, in part, to the continued cooperation of these law enforcement agencies that a meaningful picture of the statewide crash experience is available to interested persons.

Alcohol Involvement
Drinking and Crashes (Includes drivers of all vehicles and pedestrians) - Whether or not a person has been drinking cannot always be determined at the scene of a crash. It is generally impossible to determine the persons who have had one or a few drinks; yet, these individuals may be as much of a hazard as the obvious drunk. Because of the time lapse from the moment of occurrence until an officer arrives at the scene to make the investigation, a person's condition concerning drinking can change a great deal. In cases where the individual may have been removed to a hospital, doctor's office or funeral home, his condition may never be determined.

Alcohol Involvement
Drinking and Crashes (Includes drivers of all vehicles and pedestrians) - Whether or not a person has been drinking cannot always be determined at the scene of a crash. It is generally impossible to determine the persons who have had one or a few drinks; yet, these individuals may be as much of a hazard as the obvious drunk. Because of the time lapse from the moment of occurrence until an officer arrives at the scene to make the investigation, a person's condition concerning drinking can change a great deal. In cases where the individual may have been removed to a hospital, doctor's office or funeral home, his condition may never be determined.
