  While drunken driving may be on the decline,traffic safety experts remain puzzled over how to deal with another alcoholrelated danger:drunken pedestrians.

  Pedestrians struck and killed by cars often are extremely drunk. In fact,they are drunken more frequently―and with higher bloodalcohol levels―than drunken drivers who are killed in accidents,various studies have shown. Forty percent of adult pedestrians involved in fatal crashes have a bloodalcohol level of at least 0. 10―which by law in most states signifies intoxication (醉酒) 一compared to only 25 percent of drivers in deadly accidents,according to recent federal data.

  Some types of pedestrian accidents have been declining nationally,especially those involving children,but the number of adult pedestrians who are drunk when killed in traffic has remained relatively steady at 2       ,500 a year. The total number of pedestrians killed annually in US traffic accidents is at least 7 ,000,or one of every seven highway accidents resulting in death.

  "We're dealing here,we think,with a very severe drinking problem that leads to a severe highway safety problem”,said Richard Blomberg,president of Dunlap and Associates Inc.,in Norwalk,Coon.

  Blomberg,whose consulting company found a very high rate of alcohol involvement in a controlled study of pedestrian accidents in New Orleans,was among several researchers who spoke on the topic at the annual meeting of the Research Council's Transportation Research Board (TRE) in Washington in January.

  Pedestrian accidents have not received enough attention in the past,according to Kay Colpitts,who chairs the board's committee on pedestrians. Few methods exist to monitor walking habits,she said,and researchers have been puzzled about how to prevent disasters.
