摘要: This report is a compilation of information on on alternative transportation program that could provide guidance to States and local communities in developing, refining, or expanding programs to address impaired driving. The impaired-driving problem is complex and requires the full range of countermeasures. Alternative Transportation (AT) programs energed as an approach to reduce drinking and driving episodes. These services transport drinkers home from--and sometimes to and between--drinking establishments using taxis, privately owned vehicles, buses, tow trucks, and law enforcement agents. some programs provide drivers to drive the drinker's car home along with the drinker. These alternatives to driving a motor vehicle while impaired have been in existence for several decades. Studies on AT programs commissioned by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration concluded that specific characteristics of various programs show promise. These included accessibility, availability, and ease of integration into activity. / NOTE: Final rept.
