Abstract/OtherAbstract:
One hundred and forty-four deaths occurring as a result of road traffic accidents are reported, with reference to circumstance of accident, cause of death, severity of injury and blood alcohol levels. In seven cases there may have been a contribution to death from aspiration of blood or vomit. In two other cases there were lesions which might have responded to the very early provision of full medical care.
