Drivers Against Mass Nysteria
The analysis by Connolly, Kimball, and Moulton (1989) mentioned above suggests
that female drivers have both a higher overall crash risk and a higher
alcohol-related fatal-crash risk. Combined data from FARS and the 1986 National
Roadside Breathtesting Survey suggest that the relative fatal-crash risk of a
female driver with a BAC of 0.10% or more could be of the order of 50% higher
than it is for a male driver at the same BAC. Of course, estimates based on
these two unmatched data sets are, as indicated above, are only very rough, but
they are consistent with prior case-control studies (see Jones and Joscelyn
1978).
