Excerpt
A resolution adopted by the twenty-sixth session of the WHO Regional Committee for Europe in 1976 requested the Regional Director to convene a consultative group to advise on the development of a medium-term programme on prevention of road traffic accidents. The Group recommended that, within that programme, priority be given to a study of the problem of alcohol and medical drugs as major risk factors in road traffic accidents.
