308. How to control motor vehicle accidents
In us, ppl exposure in the high risk of injury and death from motor vehicle accidents. Almost one- half of fatally injured drivers have a BAC of 0.1 percent or higher. ⅓ drivers have been drinking, but fewer than 4% act these bac level. The probability of accident is 27 times higher than those without alcohol in blood.
There are many methods to reducing injuries in which intoxication plays a role. Based on excessive consumption of alcohol, government can apply higher tax.
About the direct penalty to those drinking and driving drivers. But there is little evidence that laws deterrent to driving while intoxicated. Britain example
The relationship between either penalty or excessive taxation and fatalities is unclear. It basically depends on those high BAC driver will intake in response to penalty or not. Counseling and psychotherapy are another way, but doesn’t work for now. The truth is unless we can lower the fatalities due to drunk, otherwise many will continue to die
