Table
1.16 shows the state of licensure for
drivers involved in Utah crashes.
While out of state licensed drivers
accounted for 9% of drivers involved in
crashes, they represented 19% of drivers
involved in fatal crashes. This may
be due in part to fatigued driving on
trips. While statewide, out of state
licensed drivers represented 9% of
drivers involved in crashes, there were
several counties that had a
disproportional amount of out of state
drivers (Table 1.15). Most notably,
Kane (49%), Daggett (47%), San Juan
(44%), Garfield (43%) and Grand (43%) had
a high proportion of out of state
licensed drivers involved in
crashes. These drivers may place an
undue burden on the residents and medical
services in these counties.
