TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Last Call: Decreasing drunk driving among 21-34-year-old bar patrons JO - International journal of injury control and safety promotion A1 - Rivara, Frederick P. A1 - Boisvert, Deanne A1 - Relyea-Chew, Annemarie A1 - Gomez, Tony SP - 53 EP - 61 VL - 19 IS - 1 N2 - Any effort to decrease the toll of drunk driving must include efforts directed at people who drink in bars, particularly young adults who use motor vehicles after drinking. We designed a multifaceted social marketing campaign, Last Call, to increase the use of designated drivers and safe rides homes among 21-34-year olds. There were three components to the intervention: (1) use of taxi stands to promote taxi use; (2) point-of-sale information to patrons at partner bars and (3) a mass media campaign to support the designated driver/safe ride home message. Among the heaviest drinkers, the programme significantly increased the use of designated drivers and increased the use of taxis by 63%.
