Impaired Driving - Snowmobile

A recent Ontario study examined the problem of injuries and fatalities related to alcohol consumption in combination with snowmobiling. Snowmobiling injuries were more severe and resulted in longer hospital stays than other recreational injuries. Alcohol was found in 65 per cent of those hospitalized for major snowmobiling injuries.
