A multi-faceted approach to tackling drink drive [driving] in a rural community: programs and their evaluation

In 2007, Leeton Shire embarked on a multi-faceted approach to tackling drink driving in their community. The shire had a significant history of being the highest percentage of crashes relating to alcohol within the SW Region of the Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) NSW with around 12 per cent of injury and fatal crashes attributed directly to alcohol. The principal objective of this paper is to examine the programs used to tackle drink driving in this rural community and the impacts on drink drive incidents.
