Prevalence and factors associated with driving under the influence of alcohol in Brazil

CONCLUSIONS: A high prevalence of DUIA was evident among drivers, particularly motorcyclists. The DUIA was more prevalent among men and young adults. The DUIA was associated with an increased magnitude of self-reported RTIs among car drivers and motorcyclists. Despite the extensive legislation for zero tolerance toward DUIA in the country, actions need stricter enforcement.PMID:38441924 | DOI:10.1080/15389588.2024.2314594
