Abstract
This report describes an exploratory statistical analysis of two large national traffic accident databases to determine whether certain car types are at higher risk of being driven by crash- involved drinking drivers. A primary objective of the research was to provide a new perspective with which to identify and study the types of persons who tend to crash while driving after drinking. In summary, the results showed that drinking drivers are probably significantly overrepresented in certain types of crash- involved vehicles while they are underrepresented in other vehicle types. Hypotheses about the nature of these differences are set forth.
