This technical report presents detailed statistics on the presence and level of alcohol in drivers and pedestrians involved in fatal motor vehicle accidents. The report utilizes the data from 29 selected States, and makes use of the police indication of alcohol presence in the driver before assigning BAC values to those drivers for whom test results were not known. The key findings include the large number of drivers and pedestrians found at the intoxicated level, the greater contribution of intoxicated pedestrians, the increase in the dimensions of the problem during nighttime hours, the insignificant differences found between young males and others, and the sizeable detrimental effect which high alcohol levels have on the survivability of the drivers involved.
