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

Pedestrians struck and killed by cars often are extremely drunk. In fact, they are intoxicated more frequently, and with higher blood alcohol levels, than drunken drivers who are killed in accidents, various studies have shown. Forty percent of adult pedestrians involved in fatal crashes have a blood alcohol level of at least 0.10, which by law in most states signifies intoxication(醉酒), 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 U.S. 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 Bloomberg, president of Dunlap and Associates Inc, in Norwalk, Coon.

Bloomberg, 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(TRB) in Washington in January.

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

The night was dark, though sometimes the moving clouds allowed a star or two to be seen in the sky. The poor men held on to any bit of wood they could find.

“I was forced by the wind,” he said long afterwards, “to  45  my course (航道). Just as I did it, a small  46  flew across the ship once or twice and then  47  at my face. I took  48  of this until exactly the same thing happened at a   49  time, which caused me to think it rather  50 , while I was thus  51  it, the same bird for the third time, made its appearance and flew  52  in the same way as before. I was then  53  to change my course back to the original (原来的) one.

I immediately did my best to save them.”
