Not a statistic that's great to pass around but I have read that drunk pedestrian walking is more dangerous than drunk driving (to the driver).
Taking an uber is always the move.
- LilBytes 7y agoI'm fairly certain these exact statistics are spoken and quoted in Super Freakonomics, or maybe the first Freakanomics.
- bryanrasmussen 7y agoI sort of wonder if that is heavily dependent on country or area, I mean drunk pedestrian walking in Los Angeles might be more dangerous than in Copenhagen.
- erk__ 7y agoKind of anadotical but the only time I have been around someone who got run into in Copenhagen they were visible drunk. Though I don't have any stats I can pull up.
- garborg 7y agoPerhaps reading Super Freakonomics? Rehashed here: https://freakonomics.com/2011/12/28/the-perils-of-drunk-walking/ https://freakonomics.com/2011/12/28/the-perils-of-drunk-walk... Google will provide people who don't like assumptions made in Levitt's math. Disclaimer -- I did research for Levitt and John List when I was planning to go for an Econ PhD, but on nothing related to drunk driving.
- MiroF 7y agoLikely, but it's been long enough that I don't remember.
