“…7,12,23,25,26 This finding was also identified in a study by Melcop et al, 27 in which traffic accident victims who had drunk alcohol before driving comprised 43% of such victims aged 20 to 29 years vs. only 2% of those aged 60 years and over. VIGITEL 12 showed the same trend for the total adult population in the Brazilian state capitals.…”

Objective: To explore high-risk behaviors and experiences with traffic law among night drivers in Curitiba, Brazil. Method: Data from 398 drivers on sociodemographic parameters, high-risk behaviors, experiences with traffic law, and traffic law violations were collected through interviews conducted at sobriety checkpoints. Exploratory-descriptive and analytical statistics were used. Results: The mean age of the participants was 32.6611.2 years (range, 18 to 75 years). Half of the drivers reported having driven after drinking in the last year, predominantly single men aged 18 to 29 years who drive cars and drink alcohol frequently. Only 55% of the drivers who had driven after drinking in the last year self-reported some concern about being detected in a police operation. Conclusions: A significant association was found between sociodemographic variables and behavior, which can help tailor public interventions to a specific group of drivers: young men who exhibit high-risk behaviors in traffic, such as driving after drinking alcohol, some of whom report heavy alcohol consumption. This group represents a challenge for educational and enforcement interventions, particularly because they admit to violating current laws and have a low perception of punishment due to the low risk of being detected by the police.

“…Overall, the most effective measures are strict legislation, systematic and continued supervision, and a strong law system to ensure that the offenders are penalized 10 . Studies on Vigitel data 21,22 show improvements over the habit of drinking abusively and driving, which shows a change in the habits of the population, with decline in the trend of drinking and driving between 2007 and 2013 among men of all educational levels in most regions of the country. Thus, the importance of prohibition of alcohol consumption before driving is confirmed, coinciding with the publication of laws 11,705/2008 23 and 12,760/2012 24 , reinforcing the importance of the regulatory framework prohibiting drinking and driving.…”

ABSTRACT:Objective: To present the results of indicators of alcohol consumption and driving for Brazilian capitals based on two population surveys performed in Brazil in 2013. Methods: Cross sectional study with data from adults (≥ 18 years) participants of the Telephone Survey on Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases (Vigitel) and the National Health Survey (NHS). Prevalence for indicators of alcohol consumption and driving was then calculated. Results: The proportion of adult drivers who drove soon after drinking was significantly higher among males (29.3% -Vigitel and 24.4% -NHS), the young aging 18 to 29 years (31.6% -Vigitel and 24.1% -NHS) and among residents of the capitals of the Midwest (33.7% -Vigitel and 28.3% -NHS). The proportion of adults who reported drinking and driving was higher among males (9.4% -Vigitel and 7.4% -NHS) in the 18 to 29 age group (7.1% -Vigitel; 4.5% -NHS), and among residents of the capitals of the Midwest (7.9% -Vigitel and 6.1% -NHS). Conclusion: The study estimated the prevalence of the habit of driving after alcohol consumption among drivers and in the general population. There was consistency between the results from two nationwide surveys.

“…Moura et al 50 monitored through phone calls the frequency adults drove after using alcohol in 27 Brazilian cities. They found a decrease in the months immediately following the enactment of the law but further increase was seen in the following months.…”

O artigo descreve a situação dos acidentes de trânsito no Brasil, desde a implementação do Código de Trânsito Brasileiro de 1998 até o ano de 2010. Foi realizada análise dos principais trabalhos científicos e publicações não acadêmicas nacionais. A revisão de literatura incluiu periódicos indexados, não indexados, relatórios técnicos, busca específica por autores, referências bibliográficas de artigos e contato com pesquisadores. Os principais problemas do trânsito brasileiro identificados foram aumento do número absoluto de mortos e das taxas de mortalidade, ampliação da frota de motocicletas e o uso de álcool. Foram identificados autores influentes e ilhas de produção de conhecimento nas áreas pesquisadas. Os autores apresentam algumas possíveis soluções e sugerem que o poder público não tem assumido a responsabilidade que lhe cabe no controle e redução dos acidentes de trânsito.
