TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - Who's Driving? College Students' Choices of Transportation Home After Drinking JO - Journal of Primary Prevention A1 - McCormick, LK A1 - Ureda, J SP - 103 EP - 115 VL - 16 IS - 1 N2 - Legal and educational interventions have not had a significant impact in reducing alcohol use among college students. The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency at which students placed themselves 'at-risk' for alcohol-related traffic fatalities, either by driving while alcohol impaired or riding with an alcohol-impaired driver. On a given weekend night, 18% (n = 60) of students surveyed placed themselves at risk of being involved in an alcohol-related traffic fatality. Two-thirds of the 'at-risk' subjects reported returning home with an alcohol-impaired driver. Recommendations are made for strengthening prevention efforts.
