Title: Alcohol use by persons fatally injured in motor vehicle accidents: 1984
Abstract: This report briefly describes the conduct of a project to collect and computerize data on alcohol use by persons fatally injured in motor vehicle accidents in seven provinces of Canada, and presents in numerical tables an overview of findings from the current and recent years. A key feature of the fatality database is the inclusion of objective toxicological data (from body samples) on alcohol use by victims killed in motor vehicle crashes. The first appendix presents tables showing time trends in the complete data set for the number of fatalities by type of victim, and for automobile drivers only. Alcohol use by blood alcohol content ranges is presented for drivers of four categories of vehicles, and for drivers distributed by age, by sex, and by collision type (single or multiple vehicle). Similar data for each province are displayed in subsequent appendices. (a)
