Ah, drink driving—Australia’s not-so-favourite pastime that keeps our police busy and insurance premiums high. Recent stats reveal that around 20-25% of fatal crashes involve a driver over the legal blood alcohol limit of 0.05%. Shock horror, but despite all the campaigns and breath tests, people still think they’re invincible after a few schooners.
Most offenders are males aged between 20 and 39, with weekend nights being prime time for stupidity. The government and police crackdowns are relentless but, frankly, if your brain’s that mashed, your decision-making isn’t going to improve much.
For the latest detailed figures, check out official reports from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau or grab data from ServiceCentral. Remember, don’t drink and drive—unless you fancy a new set of wheels courtesy of the local impound lot.
