For 1990, the number of traffic fatalities (44,529) reported in the United States was the lowest number reported since 1985 (1). However, limited studies appear to indicate that the proportion of female drivers involved in fatal crashes and the proportion arrested for driving while intoxicated may be increasing (2-4). This report summarizes data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) Fatal Accident Reporting System on trends in alcohol-related traffic fatalities (ARTFs) among females and males in the United States from 1982 through 1990. In addition, a quarterly table (page 199 of this issue) presents data on alcohol involvement in fatal motor-vehicle crashes in the United States for January-March 1991.
1990年，美国报告的交通死亡人数（44,529人）是自1985年以来报告的最低数字(1)。然而，有限的研究似乎表明，涉及致命撞车事故的女性司机比例以及因醉酒驾驶而被捕的比例可能在上升(2 - 4)。本报告总结了美国国家公路交通安全管理局（NHTSA）致命事故报告系统中1982年至1990年期间美国男性和女性与酒精相关的交通死亡事故（ARTF）趋势的数据。此外，一个季度表格（本期第199页）列出了1991年1月至3月美国致命机动车撞车事故中涉及酒精的相关数据。
