| | Traffic Tech Number 183 August 1998 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18) |
 | | A number of factors have been studied in the recent literature, but only driver sex, age and, to some extent, race, are based on hard epidemiologic data. |
 | | Male drivers in the 21-34 age group, and drivers who are of the white race constitute the largest percentage of alcohol-impaired drivers in fatal crashes. |
 | | Combining the data from FARS and from roadside surveys that measure the BACs of drivers, suggests a significant relative risk of becoming involved in a fatal crash at BACs in the.05 to.10 range, and a lower, also significant risk, in the.02 to.05 BAC range. |
