About the Indicator:

As a depressant, alcohol use interferes with coordination, judgment and reaction time and can have fatal consequences.  Driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level 0.08 or higher, 0.04 in a commercial vehicle, or any amount at all if the driver is under age 21 is a legal violation and can be assessed from different sources.

Data are reported on DUI arrests and incidents on record1.
