Drink-driving research in New Zealand is briefly analyzed with reference to traffic accidents. Claims about drinking, driving, and accidents which have currency in New Zealand at present are appraised. It is shown that many factors are involved in traffic accidents, and the problems in their causation are highly complex. Alcohol is only one of many factors present in accidents. It is involved in less than half of all injury-producing accidents. Much of its involvement in traffic accidents is of a spurious rather than a causal nature. et the focus of countermeasures against traffic accidents is drinking and driving. These countermeasures are ineffective.
本文参考交通事故对新西兰的酒驾研究进行了简要分析。对目前在新西兰流行的关于饮酒、驾驶和事故的说法进行了评估。结果表明，交通事故涉及许多因素，其成因问题非常复杂。酒精只是事故中存在的众多因素之一。在所有造成伤害的事故中，涉及酒精的不到一半。它在交通事故中的许多关联是虚假的而非因果关系。然而，交通事故应对措施的重点却是酒驾。这些应对措施是无效的。
