The Road Safety Authority chief executive, Moyagh Murdock, has said there is evidence that drink driving is “creeping up” again as latest figures show alcohol was involved in a third of fatal collisions.
A report published by the Road Safety Authority in June for 2008-2012 shows a record of alcohol consumption before the collision in 29% of cases analysed.
Ms Murdock said that latest vehicle collision figures for 2013 showed alcohol was involved in 33% of cases.
“That is very worrying,” she said.
