In the fall of 1994, the SWOV Institute for Road Safety Research, in cooperation with the police of three districts in Zeeland, carried out a study into the use of alcohol by drivers in the Dutch province of Zeeland. The aim was to establish the motorists' alcohol consumption in this province. Blood alcohol content (BAC), age and sex of the drivers were collected and recorded. If the recorded BAC level was 0.7 or over, places of origin of the offenders were also collected and recorded. The study was carried out on Friday and Saturday nights. The 1994 sample included 533 motorists. The results of the 1994 survey are compared with the results of the 1993 national survey.
