This study found that individual drinking patterns and behaviors, like frequenting bars, significantly predict drinking and driving. Socio-demographic differences in this behavior are explained by these underlying drinking habits.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Sociology
  • Behavioral Science

Background:

  • Alcohol-related injury research often focuses on either drinking behaviors or patterns.
  • A comprehensive understanding requires integrating both perspectives to analyze drinking and driving.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between drinking patterns, drinking behaviors, and self-reported drinking and driving.
  • To develop and test a theoretical model explaining these associations.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized cross-sectional data from a US-based alcohol-related injury study.
  • Analyzed self-reported data on driving after drinking and driving while intoxicated.
  • Related these reports to socio-demographics, drinking patterns, beverage preferences, and routine activities.

Main Results:

  • Drinking pattern measures significantly predicted drinking and driving, outperforming other measures.
  • Beverage preferences showed no association with drinking and driving.
  • Frequentation of bars and restaurants was significantly linked to both drinking and driving measures.

Conclusions:

  • Observed socio-demographic disparities in drinking and driving stem from underlying differences in drinking patterns and behaviors.
  • Understanding drinking patterns and behaviors is crucial for addressing alcohol-related injury and impaired driving.
