This article describes a study, which is the first in Israel to investigate knowledge concerning drinking and driving among a large group of 2408 adolescents of four religions in the north of Israel, in the winter of 1995. The article analyses the results by referring to general scores and to five areas in the "drinking and driving" domain: legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit, minimal number of drinks prohibited by the law before driving, common myths, main effects of alcohol on driving ability and youth vulnerability. The article emphasizes differences between the Jewish group and the non-Jewish (Arab) group. The average score of the sample was 2.06 (out of 5). Jews received the highest score (2.30) and Moslems got the lowest score (1.45). No differences were found among those who had a driving license and those who had not, and between the group of respondents from the north of Israel and a sample of participants from the center of the country. Lack of knowledge was revealed especially concerning knowledge about the BAC limit and youth vulnerability. Arabs tended to exaggerate the amount of drinks allowed to be consumed before driving according to the law, to hold common myths more than Jews and to get lower scores concerning alcohol main effects on driving skills. However, they tended to be more aware than Jews to youth vulnerability.
本文介绍了一项研究，该研究是1995年冬季在以色列北部针对2408名来自四种宗教的青少年进行的大规模调查，是以色列国内首次对青少年酒驾知识展开的调查。文章通过参考总体得分以及“酒驾”领域的五个方面来分析研究结果，这五个方面分别是：法定血液酒精浓度（BAC）限制、法律规定的驾车前禁止饮用的最少饮酒量、常见误区、酒精对驾驶能力的主要影响以及青少年的易受影响程度。文章强调了犹太群体和非犹太（阿拉伯）群体之间的差异。样本的平均得分为2.06（满分5分）。犹太人得分最高（2.30），穆斯林得分最低（1.45）。在有驾照和无驾照的人群之间，以及来自以色列北部的受访者群体和来自以色列中部的参与者样本之间，未发现差异。研究发现，尤其是在BAC限制和青少年易受影响程度方面，青少年缺乏相关知识。阿拉伯人倾向于夸大法律允许驾车前饮用的酒量，比犹太人持有更多常见误区，并且在酒精对驾驶技能的主要影响方面得分更低。然而，他们比犹太人更了解青少年的易受影响程度。
