摘要: |
Research was conducted in New South Wales during 1994 to determine the attitudes, knowledge and experience of licensed premises with regard to public breath testing devices. A three stage research method was used, involving in-depth discussions with managers/owners, the development of a draft questionnaire which was then piloted, and finally a survey of 144 managers/owners of premises. The results show that the experience of managers/owners of premises with public breath testing devices is that they are accurate (80 percent), have no negative effect upon alcohol sales (93 percent) and are a service for their patrons (26 percent) which assists them in determining whether to drive (49 percent). Managers/owners of premises without devices were generally positive toward them (54 percent) and see them as fairly accurate (53 percent). While there are minor issues which need to be addressed, such as improved servicing and providing information on the accuracy of devices, the results indicate that there is opportunity to broaden the availability of public breath testing devices.
