This paper describes historical trends in drunken driving and traffic accidents in Finland since 1930 and discusses the relationship between alcohol policy, alcohol consumption, and drunken driving. It first describes the development of laws dealing with drunken driving and actual punishments for drunken driving. Secondly, it describes quantitative changes in drunken driving and traffic accidents, giving particular attention to alcohol-related traffic accidents. Thirdly, it analyses the connection between alcohol consumption and drunken driving. Finally, the relationship between alcohol policy and alcohol consumption in Finland is discussed. The role of the alcoholic beverages industry is also scrutinized. The paper shows that there are links among alcohol control policy, alcohol consumption, drinking habits, drunken driving, and alcohol-related traffic accidents. However, these ties are manifested through numerous mediating factors and alcohol is not the sole decisive factor. The paper also shows that drunken driving in Finland has increased and that alcohol-related traffic accidents are an important social problem.
本文描述了自1930年以来芬兰酒后驾车和交通事故的历史趋势，并探讨了酒精政策、酒精消费与酒后驾车之间的关系。它首先描述了处理酒后驾车的法律发展以及对酒后驾车的实际处罚。其次，它描述了酒后驾车和交通事故的数量变化，特别关注与酒精相关的交通事故。第三，它分析了酒精消费与酒后驾车之间的联系。最后，讨论了芬兰酒精政策与酒精消费之间的关系。酒精饮料行业的作用也受到了审视。本文表明，酒精控制政策、酒精消费、饮酒习惯、酒后驾车和与酒精相关的交通事故之间存在联系。然而，这些联系是通过众多中介因素表现出来的，酒精并非唯一的决定性因素。本文还表明，芬兰的酒后驾车现象有所增加，与酒精相关的交通事故是一个重要的社会问题。
