| 摘要： | From 1983 through 1998, at least 137,338 people died and 99,812 people were injured in fatal crashes involving hard core drinking drivers, a term used in this report to include repeat offender drinking drivers as well as offenders with high blood-alcohol concentrations. In 1998 along, hard core drinking drivers were involved in a minimum of 6,370 highway fatalities, the estimated cost of which was at least $5.3 billion. The safety issue discussed in this report is the roadway risk presented by hard core drinking drivers. The report discusses research on control measures used in one of more of the States and proposes solutions. It also discusses steps taken by the United States Congress to address the hard core drinking driver problem by enacting certain provisions in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21), and suggests ways to make this legislation even more effective. As a result of its study, the National Transportation Safety Board issued recommendations to the Governors and Legislative Leaders of the 50 States and the Mayor and Council of the District of Columbia, and to the Department of Transportation. |
