Abstract
North Dakota crash data reveals concerns in the areas of driving under the influence as well as seat belt use. In 2006, alcohol, drugs, and/or medication was the second leading contributing factor in North Dakota fatal crashes (ND Crash Summary, 2006).
Additionally, seat belt use plays a significant role in
saving lives. Of the crash fatalities in 2007, 72 percent were unbelted (ND Crash Data).
