TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - The iconography in use for battle against drunk driving JO - Acta medicinae legalis et socialis A1 - Gortz, R. SP - 15 EP - 39 VL - 40 IS - N2 - The origin of driving accidents is polyfactorial. If the mediocrity of the road network, the technical failures of the vehicles, the violation of the highway code represent an important percentage in the cause of accidents, the great purveyor remains "drunk driving" in the global number of accidents as well as in their importance. The public authorities have not only established laws in this matter so as to penalize alcohol consumption, but furthermore, have initiated a wide programme of verbal information (radio - television), written information (brochures) and iconographic information (posters) to sensitise public opinion on the risks of driving under the influence of alcohol.
