Abstract:

Every 2‐hours, three people are killed in alcohol‐related highway crashes. The consequences of

drinking and driving are arrests, property damage, injuries, and thousands of deaths each year. An

estimated 4 million U.S. adults reported driving under the influence of alcohol at least once in

2010—yielding an estimated 112 million alcohol‐impaired driving episodes. Men accounted for 81

percent of these incidents.
