Estimates of alcohol involvement in fatal traffic crashes that occurred during 1988 are presented. Several comparisons of alcohol involvement for the period 1982- 1988 are presented to investigate changes and trends. The greatest reductions in intoxicated driver involvement from 1982- 1988 can be found during the daytime hours on weekdays and weekends for drivers of age 16- 20 years, daytime hours on weekdays and weekends for drivers of age 45+ years, and among female drivers.
