Abstract
This year’s conference deals with the most important facts and questions related to the topic of alcohol and driving from a general, technical and psychological perspective. Driving whilst under the influence of alcohol contributes annually to 10,000 deaths on EU roads. In some EU countries, alcohol has become the greatest risk factor of road crashes. However, the problem persists, as it is quite immune to traditional policy interventions. The advances of technologies and public health initiatives have a potential to change the situation.
