Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of the law against drinking and driving on mortality from land traffic accidents in Santa Catarina, Brazil. METHODS: This is an ecological study of mortality from land traffic accidents from 2000 to 2016 in the municipalities of Santa Catarina. The mortality rate in the periods 2000 to 2007 and 2009 to 2016 and the difference between them was calculated. Spatial autocorrelation analysis of the product of the deviations in relation to the mean was performed according to the place of residence of the victim. RESULTS: Deaths resulting from land traffic accidents in the state of Santa Catarina totaled 28,528 cases, 50.36% in the second period, equivalent to 1.45% increase. For the death rate, there were 31.1 cases/100,000 inhabitants in the first period and 27.5 in the second, representing a reduction of 11%. CONCLUSION: Despite the overall reduction in the mortality rate from land traffic accidents in Santa Catarina after the law against drinking and driving, the increase in rates in some municipalities in the state demonstrates that there is still a need to strengthen inspections and implement other public and education policies.
