“…Of the 19 included studies [18–36], nine were controlled interrupted time series (CITS) [18, 19, 23–26, 31, 32, 36], seven were uncontrolled interrupted time series (ITS) [20, 21, 27–30, 33] and three were controlled before-after studies (CBA) [22, 34, 35]. Nine [23–28, 31–33] of the studies had concomitant enforcement activities taking place at the time of the media campaign and the effect of the media campaign was not analyzed separately.…”

BackgroundMass media campaigns have long been used as a tool for promoting public health. In the past decade, the growth of social media has allowed more diverse options for mass media campaigns. This systematic review was conducted to assess newer evidence from quantitative studies on the effectiveness of mass media campaigns for reducing alcohol-impaired driving (AID) and alcohol-related crashes, particularly after the paper that Elder et al. published in 2004.MethodsThis review focused on English language studies that evaluated the effect of mass media campaigns for reducing AID and alcohol-related crashes, with or without enforcement efforts. A systematic search was conducted for studies published between January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2013. Studies from the review by Elder et al. were added as well.ResultsA total of 19 studies met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review, including three studies from the review by Elder et al. Nine of them had concomitant enforcement measures and did not evaluate the impact of media campaigns independently. Studies that evaluated the impact of mass media independently showed reduction more consistently (median −15.1 %, range −28.8 to 0 %), whereas results of studies that had concomitant enforcement activities were more variable (median −8.6 %, range −36.4 to +14.6 %). Summary effects calculated from seven studies showed no evidence of media campaigns reducing the risk of alcohol-related injuries or fatalities (RR 1.00, 95 % CI = 0.94 to 1.06).ConclusionsDespite additional decade of evidence, reviewed studies were heterogeneous in their approaches; therefore, we could not conclude that media campaigns reduced the risk of alcohol-related injuries or crashes. More studies are needed, including studies evaluating newly emerging media and cost-effectiveness of media campaigns.

“…Although many of these key pieces of legislation were passed nation-wide, there was (and still is) considerable variation in the extent of change among states [10,11]. This suggests that something must be happening within states beyond the passage of legislation to account for changes in drinking and driving.…”

“…The drawback to this solution is that, when sobriety checkpoints are used, the tool already uses an assumption of an 8.1-percent reduction in the number of fatalities related to drunk driving (Fell, Langston, et al, 2008). This is higher than most studies of the effectiveness of 0.05.…”

“…The estimate in the original MV PICCS is from Fell, Tippetts, and Levy, 2008, which looks across multiple U.S. states. Our own interpretation of that analysis led to our estimate of the 8.1-percent reduction that we use in the tool for sobriety checkpoints.…”

The purpose of this tool, which is available to the public at www.cdc.gov/motorvehiclesafety/calculator/ (CDC, 2015), is to support states and local communities in making evidence-based resource allocation decisions relating to the implementation of effective evidence-based interventions for preventing motor vehicle-related injury.In 2017, the team completed an update to the tool as part of a project led by the National Governors Association, funded by CDC, to work with states and governors' offices to strengthen strategies to reduce highway and traffic injuries and fatalities. The work includes updates to some of the data used, updates to some of the assumptions and methods to derive the data, and a full redesign of the user interface of the tool. This report documents which data, assumptions, and methods we updated. The audience for this report is the users of the online tool, state and local health and safety officials seeking information on the effectiveness and costs of the 14 motor vehicle injury prevention interventions included in MV PICCS.The more complete documentation, which includes discussion of how we selected interventions for inclusion in the tool and how we programmed the tool, is available in Ringel et al., 2015. RAND researchers have also undertaken related work that used the data in the tool to conduct policy analyses of traffic safety spending. This work was sponsored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
