In the middle of the survey, the 1991 Australian Formula I Grand Prix was held and licensed premises were permitted to open 24 hours a day. Sampling of drivers continued during the Grand Prix when a total of 509 breath tests were obtained. These tests were then compared with a matched sample of 2621 drivers tested before and after the Grand Prix. It was found that late night drivers' blood alcohol levels were significantly elevated during the time of the Grand Prix. | | ISBN | 2951174608 | | Conference Name | 14th International Conference on Alcohol, Drugs and Traffic Safety | | Conference Abbreviation | ICADTS - T97 | | Conference Location | Annecy, France | | Conference Date | 21-26 September 1997 | | Journal Volume (Issue) | 3 | | Page Range | 1147-1152 (vol 3) | | Page Count | 6 | | Notes | available from CASR library on request |
