An evaluation of a hospital-based drinking and driving prevention program.
For the past four years, Victoria Hospital has provided a drinking and driving prevention program: IMPACT - Impaired Minds Produced by Alcohol Cause Trauma. The program provides information to Grade 11 students about the potential "impact" of alcohol-related trauma on themselves, their family and their future. ⋯ Determining whether or not increased knowledge and changed attitude in fact results in changed behaviour is beyond the scope of this study. Further longitudinal, quantitative evaluation of program effectiveness, based on traffic safety indices, is being undertaken.
