What happened: He said he briefly looked away from the road to retrieve a phone that had fallen between the seats. When he looked up, his vehicle had crossed the center line and collided with an SUV.

Why it matters: The account corrects a state database error that put the other driver on the wrong side of the road. The 49ers have limited Shanahan's training-camp role, with Chris Foerster and the coordinators handling head-coaching duties during his recovery.

What to watch: Watch whether Shanahan's participation expands as training camp progresses.
