Denemarken zou in 2011 van de 6e naar de 5e plaats opgeklommen zijn.
(EU-tabel verkeersdoden/miljoen inwoners (2011 geschat))
En heeft een goede databank betreft verkeersdoden bij een ongeval
onder alcoholinvloed, zelfs kwetsbare weggebruikers (1)
Gemiddeld
25 % doden/totaal (2) zijn alcoholgerelateerd (>0,5 promille)... lijkt me veel (
vgl met Be wslk weinig)
...; of 75 % doden bij < 0,5 promille.
want DK staat toch 5de hé. En dit bij een non-fltspaalbeleid (2 flitspalen/miljoen inw), vergelijk flits-BE : 164 flp/milj inwoners...

DK heeft het blijkbaar aangepakt via handhaving en straffen,
want een daling 2007-2010 is daar ook duidelijk te zien, het zal natuurlijk en-en zijn (zeker veilige weginfra zonder bomen en palen)
Even in de tijd googlen (let op data en cijfers):

How Europe tackles drink-driving
...
Discussions are currently under way in Denmark to reduce permitted levels to 0.2g/l, which would effectively introduce zero tolerance in an effort to reduce the number of traffic deaths to 200 by the year 2012.
Of the 306 traffic deaths on Danish roads in 2006, 70 are said to have been the result of drink driving, with most of these in the young-driver category.
Penalties for driving under the influence of alcohol are strict. Depending on alcohol concentration, first-time offenders have licences suspended, a fine of monthly income times alcohol concentration and self-paid obligatory alcohol and traffic courses.
Penalties increase as alcohol concentration increases and repeat offenders risk prison sentences.
Regular law enforcement campaigns, with frequent traffic police raids during holiday periods, have also contributed to changes in attitudes towards drinking and driving.
Most recently, Denmark has also introduced new laws which, for the first time, make it illegal to drive under the influence of euphoriants and other drugs.
Until now laws governing euphoriant driving have come under traffic safety legislation, meaning that provided that drivers did not break traffic rules, they were not liable to sanction.
DK heeft wel zijn 0,5 algemeen nog behouden, maar de voorspelling ~ 200 doden voor 2012 schijnt uit te komen, volgens laatste berichten zou het wel eens een record zijn, in 2011 al. (het weer heeft ook wat meegeholpen in postieve zin)

Traffic deaths fall to record low
December 27, 2011 - 14:30
2011 numbers are nearly half that of 2008
With just over 200 traffic deaths, 2011 was a historically good year for road safety.
According to figures from Politiken newspaper and the Danish Road Directorate (Vejdirektoratet), 204 people have died in traffic accidents thus far in 2011, besting the previous record of 255 set last year. This year’s projected total is nearly half that of 2008, when 406 traffic deaths were recorded.
According to the traffic safety council Rådet for Sikker Trafik, the harsh winter conditions of the past few years are a primary reason for the decrease, presumably because of extra precautions taken by drivers during extreme winter weather. Also credited with the drop in fatalities were newer and safer automobile models as well as increased media coverage of traffic accidents.
2011’s steep decline in traffic deaths was greeted warmly by Anders Rosbo, head of the traffic safety council Rådet for Sikker Trafik.
Maw de Denen bereiken quasi bijna hun doelstelling na 5 jaar (nog 1 jaar hebben ze voor die 200 in 2012), en dit met een anti-flitspaalbeleid, ttz flitspalen gebruiken ze daar niet als alibi-we-zijn-goe-bezig ...
