Abstract:

This report updates the following two papers which review the drinking and driving situation in France and which were presented at the International Conference on Alcohol, Drugs and Traffic Safety, T-92, in Cologne, Germany in October, 1992: "Drinking and driving in France during the years 1983-91: changes in legal framework and analysis in road users' behavior" (M.B. Biecheler, C. Filou); and "Drinking and driving law enforcement in a wine-producing country: a multi-criteria process from 1960 to 1990" (M. Ch. Jayet). These studies present different types of changes in the drinking and driving issue in the early 1990s (behavior, risk, repression, habits and economy) after two decades of steadily reinforced legal policy (legal BAC limit, random testing and the use of breath alcohol testing, more severe punishment).
