N2  - Alcohol abuse in traffic situations is a microcosm of the general alcohol abuse problem. Drivers with high BAC's are as small a percentage of the driving samples as are problem drinkers calculated to be in their respective populations (De Lint and Schmidt, 1971). It should not be surprising that those who daily risk their health and social relationships by alcohol abuse would risk as much, and more, on the highway. Therefore, countermeasures designed to reduce impaired driving are most appropriate to the majority of consumers who do not normally abuse alcohol but who will, on occasion, drive with hazardous BAC levels. Despite the sample limitations of the National Roadside Survey this analysis approximated findings of other surveys and known correlates of various levels of alcohol consumption including abstinence. With the exception of education and employment, there were distinct and appropriate differences among drinker types according to their age, sex, marital status and region.<p />
