	Impact of the 1985 Amendments to the Drinking Driving Section of the Criminal Code of Canada
		In December 1985, the Department of Justice Canada amended the drinking and driving sections of the Criminal Code of Canada, which included among other changes, an increase in the severity of penalties for impaired driving.
		Several reasons why the legislation did not have an impact included; the public was unaware of the change in legislation; the law was not fully implemented; the law had unexpected and countervailing effects; and, the amendments related primarily to the severity of sanctions and not to the certainty and swiftness of their application.
		The reason the 1985 amendments to the drinking and driving sections of the Criminal Code did not have a measurable impact was, in part, due to limited public awareness of the law (see: Beirness, Simpson and Mayhew 1993; and Simpson, Mayhew and Beirness 1992).
