Special crash report
The Duxbury Clipper took accident data, available in raw form from the Department of Transportation's Mass Highway Division, from the year's 2005-2008 and plugged it into a customized, interactive map in order to pinpoint areas in town that were accident "hot spots." Those numbers were used as the basis for the two-part report below.
To explore the maps, click on the boxes below. Maps are organized by year. Blue pins represent an accident with property damage only, red means non-fatal injury, green is for a fatal injury and yellow means not reported. Zoom in to your street and see where accidents have occured, and hover over an individual marker for data like date, time, number of cars, road conditions, etc.
You can also download or view the raw spreadsheets we pulled the crash data from (via Scribd.com): 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005.
