What is this Indicator?
This indicator shows the percentage of adults who report one or more occasions in the past month of driving after perhaps having too much to drink. |
| Why this is important: Though episodes of driving after drinking too much ("drinking and driving") have gone down by 30% during the past 5 years, it remains a serious problem in the US. Alcohol-impaired drivers* are involved in about 1 in 3 crash deaths, resulting in nearly 11,000 deaths in 2009. |
| Technical Note: The regional value is compared to the national value; national data are derived from the PRC National Health Survey. |
