Approximately one third of deaths among persons aged 15 to 24 years are the result of motor vehicle-related crashes. Data from a national sample of US high school students were used to assess patterns of alcohol use among adolescents in relation to the risk of drinking and driving. Prevalence and odds ratios were calculated for drinking and driving associated with patterns of alcohol use. Drinking and driving increased with increasing frequency of alcohol use and binge drinking and when alcohol was used in addition to other drugs. Efforts to reduce drinking and driving among adolescents should address underage drinking that is frequent or heavy.
15至24岁人群中约三分之一的死亡是机动车相关撞车事故所致。利用来自美国高中生全国样本的数据评估青少年饮酒模式与酒后驾车风险之间的关系。计算了与饮酒模式相关的酒后驾车的患病率和比值比。酒后驾车随着饮酒频率增加、暴饮以及除其他药物外还饮酒而增加。减少青少年酒后驾车的努力应针对频繁或大量的未成年人饮酒行为。
