abstract="Autopsy specimens from 52 fatally injured drivers in Rhode Island were analyzed for the presence of alcohol and other drugs of abuse, including, among others, cocaine, opiates, cannabinoids (THC), and phencyclidine (PCP). The ages of the drivers ranged from 16 to 87 years; 41 were male and 11 female. Based on this sample, 65% of Rhode Island driver fatalities involve drugs. The most common drug, alcohol was found in 59% of the cases. Drugs other than alcohol were detected in 19% of the cases, 13% had illicit drugs found in combination with alcohol, and 6% had illicit drugs only.
