Samenvatting
Although the primary factor affecting the likelihood of driver injury in an accident is speed, the study indicates that the likelihood of driver injury, given that an accident has occurred, is significantly greater in the presence of alcohol. This effect holds over a wide range of speeds, for rural paved roads, over a wide range of drivers ' ages, for single-vehicle accidents as well as for all accidents, and for minor and moderate injuries and to an even greater extent for serious injuries.
