Bloomberg-Funded Study: Industry Initiatives to Prevent Drinking & Driving Lack Scientific Evidence of Effectiveness
The majority of the alcohol industry’s actions around the world to reduce drinking and driving either lack evidence of effectiveness or haven’t been studied, new Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health research suggests.
Reporting Feb. 18 in the American Journal of Public Health, the researchers analyzed the content of 266 initiatives the alcohol industry implemented around the world to reduce drinking and driving between 1982 and 2015. . .
The research was conducted during the Global Road Safety Program, which is funded by the Bloomberg Philanthropies.
