Samenvatting
The objective of this research was to examine attitudes and behaviour related to drinking-driving among men whose sociodemographic profile place them at increased risk for fatal alcohol-related motor vehicle collisions. The sample contained 750 young men, including 230 binge drinking drivers (BDD). The results show that BDD drank more often, consumed more per drinking episode, and were more likely to believe they could drive safely after binge drinking. BDD were less likely to make plans to avoid drinking-driving and were more likely to have been in an alcohol-related accident. Conclusion is that BDD report deviant drinking and drinking-driving behaviour and possess casual attitudes toward drinking-driving. (A)
