Study: 1 in 10 binge drinkers get on the road after drinking

One in 10 binge drinkers got behind the wheel the last time they drank heavily. And half of those drivers left from a bar, restaurant or nightclub after downing five or more drinks, a new study has found. The study is being called the first to try to measure the likelihood someone will drive after binge drinking. It suggests a need for stepped-up efforts to prevent bars and restaurants from serving people after they’re intoxicated, according to its authors at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

North Dakota’s ranking as No. 1 in binge drinking should come as no surprise when the state also ranks No. 1 in underage drinking. Drinkers are just graduating upward. Neither should it be a surprise that North Dakota’s universities are having problems with drinking and that the University of North Dakota ranks among the nation’s top 20 party schools.

More than one-third of adults in the state think teen drinking is all right and should be legal.
