In cooperation with 36 control teams of the police, SWOV Institute for Road Safety Research carried out a study into the use of alcohol by drivers in six Dutch provinces: Groningen, Gelderland, North and South Holland, and North Brabant. The investigation, executed on Friday and Saturday nights in the period between September and December 1991, is a continuation of the national investigations into drinking and driving behavior conducted between the years 1971 and 1989. Compared with these previous investigations, the design of this study was greatly changed. The most important goal of the new design was to get a greater sample of drivers in order to provide conclusions both on a national and on a provincial level. The ultimate sample consisted of 8716 drivers. It appears from the study that the number of drivers with a legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit (equal to or more than 0.5 per cent) has approximately been halved since 1989.
