Hello
I am a Canadian journalist, trying to research an article about drivers involved in crashes who may have been using cellular or car phones shortly before the collision occurred - i.e. are there examples of crashes where driver distraction while driving or speaking on a phone led (or was associated with) the collision?

I have looked at studies and statistics, but I am now at the point where I need to find specific incidents, with names, locations, details of the collision... and that is why I am approaching you.

If there is anyone on this list who can provide information about Canadian collisions involving cellular phones, I would appreciate hearing from you.

Thanks very much for your assistance,
Gail Hulnick
