Drugged driving, the operation of a vehicle under the influence of any illegal drugs and alcohol, is a growing problem, but remains understudied among adolescents. The purpose of this article is to estimate past-year driving under the influence of alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs among a large sample of U.S. adolescents and potential associations (e.g., age, race, metropolitan status, sex).
A cross-sectional secondary data analysis of the 2016-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health among 17,520 adolescents ages 16-17-years old was conducted. Weighted logistic regression models were built to determine potential associations to drugged driving.
An estimated 2.00% of adolescents drove under the influence of alcohol in the past year, 5.65% drove under the influence of marijuana in the past year, and an estimated 0.48% drove under the influence of other drugs other than marijuana in the past year. Differences were based on race, past-year drug use, and county status.
Drugged driving is a growing problem among adolescents and interventions are greatly needed to mitigate these behaviors among youth.
药物影响下驾驶，即在任何非法药物和酒精影响下驾驶车辆，是一个日益严重的问题，但在青少年中仍未得到充分研究。本文旨在估计美国大量青少年样本中过去一年在酒精、大麻和其他药物影响下的驾驶情况以及潜在关联（如年龄、种族、都市地位、性别）。
对2016 - 2019年全国药物使用和健康调查中17520名16 - 17岁青少年进行了横断面二次数据分析。构建加权逻辑回归模型以确定与药物影响下驾驶的潜在关联。
估计过去一年有2.00%的青少年在酒精影响下驾驶，5.65%的青少年在大麻影响下驾驶，估计有0.48%的青少年在过去一年在除大麻以外的其他药物影响下驾驶。差异基于种族、过去一年的药物使用情况和所在县的状况。
药物影响下驾驶在青少年中是一个日益严重的问题，非常需要采取干预措施来减少青少年中的这些行为。
