Abstract

This paper examines alcohol use among fatally injured operators of three types of recreational vehicles - snowmobiles, bicycles and all terrain vehicles (ATVs) - in Canada between 1987 and 1997. It uses data from the TIRF Fatality Database to compare alcohol involvement in fatally injured operators of these vehicles to that among fatally injured drivers of automobiles. The implications of the findings for programs and policies are discussed.
