Samenvatting

This article examines the characteristics of collisions involving injured drinking drivers, to determine how these factors predict the type of charges laid against a driver. The most likely outcome for both injured and non-injured drivers is a non-criminal charge. Injury severity and remoteness of location inhibit charges being laid against drinking drivers. However, likelihood of a Criminal Code charge is not well differentiated by collision characteristics. (Author/publisher) For the covering abstract of the conference see ITRD Abstract No. E201067.
