What has been impaired driving among teenagers has increased? Need to know some facts about TEENAGE impaired driving. as percentages or why it has increased over the years and things like that.
Your question can not answer because he has a false assumption. The percentage of teenagers involved in accidents, fatal accidents and fatalities involving alcohol has declined * in recent decades.
Comparing 2005 with 1995:
For 16 sub:
1995: 410 drivers, 9.3% BAC> =. 08%: 38 drunk drivers.
2005: 304 drivers, 10.5% BAC> =. 08%: 32 drunk drivers.
For young teens, 2005 saw a 20% reduction in deaths from drunk drivers.
For 16-20:
1995: 7725 drivers, 15.6% BAC> =. 08%: 1205 drunk drivers.
2005: 7334 drivers, 17.3% BAC> =. 08%: 1268 drunk drivers.
For Teens, 2005 saw a 5% increase in fatal drunk drivers.
I could not find an age breakdown, but in 2005 there were 200,549,000 license, an increase of 12% compared to license 176,628,000 in 1995.
Assuming a similar increase in the number of young drivers, the fatality rate * and * of fatal accidents involving a> BAC =. 08% decreased significantly from 1995 to 2005.
