Evaluating the effect of drunk driving on fatal injuries among vulnerable road users in Taiwan: a population-based study

Abstract

Drunk driving was associated with a higher risk of fatality for all VRUs. The risk of fatal injury among motorcyclists was linearly related to the BAC of the drunk drivers. Injuries were more severe for intoxicated motorcyclists, even those with BAC ≤ 0.03%, which is within the legal limit.
