| State Data on Alcohol, Tobacco, and Illegal Drug Use In 1999, estimates of alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drug use for all the individual States were available for the first time. This innovation resulted from the implementation of a national survey design with representative State samples, increased sample size, and newly available analytic software. State level data prior to 1999 are not available.

 Based
on SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 21% of young drivers aged
15 to 17 were binge drinkers and 6% were heavy drinkers during the combined years
of 1999 to 2001. Rates of heavy drinking and binge drinking among young drivers
varied by the States' Graduated Driver Licensing ratings, based on the extent
to which they restrict driving behavior among young drivers. This report identifies
the States categorized from most restrictive to least restrictive according to
the 4 category rating scheme developed by the Insurance Institute for Highway
Safety and the Traffic Injury Research Foundation. See The
