摘要：

Alcohol is the single most prevalent contributing factor in a serious road crasheds. One in three persons killed and one in five injured has a blood alcohol concentration equal to or greater than 50 mg/100 ml. These high incidences are not found in the general on-road population. Controlled epidemiological studies have shown a causal link. However, the nature of the causal mechanisms is not yet well understood. While numerous experimental studies have documented specific decrements in a range of driving-related skills, the role of these decrements in crash causation is not known. A complementary approach is to study in detail the circumstances of alcohol-related crashes. The value of this approach is briefly reviewed. Refs.
