Crashes May Rise When Alcohol Sales Ban Is Lifted "States that repeal blue laws prohibiting the sale of packaged alcohol on Sundays may find themselves subject to a sharp increase in alcohol-related vehicle crashes and fatalities on that day of the week, a new study has found." "We extracted all alcohol-related crashes from New Mexico police reports for 3652 days between July 1, 1990, and June 30, 2000, and found a 29% increase in alcohol-related crashes and a 42% increase in alcohol-related crash fatalities on Sundays after the ban on Sunday packaged alcohol sales was lifted. Repealing the ban on Sunday packaged alcohol sales introduced a public health and safety hazard in New Mexico." Übersetzung H.T. Meyer:
Die Zahl der Unfälle könnte ansteigen, wenn das Verkaufsverbot aufgehoben wird. "Staaten, die die blauen Gesetze aufheben, welche den Verkauf von
verpacktem Alkohol an Sonntagen verbieten, könnten ein starkes Ansteigen
der alkoholbedingten Verkehrsunfälle und Tote an diesem Wochentag
erleben, fand eine neue Studie." |
