生词:intoxication中毒、醉酒
In the US risks of injury and death from motor vehicle accidents are high---almost one-half have a BAC (罗列数据证明)
There are lots of approached to reduce injuries----intoxication plays a role
1. suggest higher taxed on alcohol
2. to make drinking and driving a criminal offense---directed only at intoxicated drivers
However, there are still about 700 violations for every arrest (laws fail to serve as deterrents)
(For example, in Britain, it works at the beginning, but when people recognize they could drink and not be stopped, it fails.)
Whether penalties for BAC ore taxation on consumption will deter the drinker in unclear.
----the answers depend on the extent to control their intake in respond to economic or penal threat. (T programs constitute another approach, but fail again; in the few controlled trails, little evidence that prove them success; ASAP program has no evidence that they decrease)
However, one thing is clear----unless we manage to deal with this problem, many will continue to die.
