To better address the issue of underage drinking in the State of Iowa, a State Underage Drinking Task Force was formed to research the problem and develop a strategic plan of action. The Task Force was working on the development of goals and actions when the Surgeon General’s Call to Action to Prevent and Reduce Underage Drinking 2007 was released. Due to the similarity in the goals outlined in the Call to Action with those they had developed, the Task Force, along with the DPAC, is recommending that the document be used as the basis for the plan to curb underage drinking. The Call to Action is based on several overarching principles from which its goals and the means for achieving them were derived.

This project examines the effects of age, experience, and video-based feedback on the rate and type of safety-relevant events captured on video event recorders in the vehicles of three groups of newly licensed young drivers: 1. 14.5- to 15.5-year-old drivers who hold a minor school license (see Appendix A for the provisions of the Iowa code governing minor school licenses); 2. 16-year-old drivers with an intermediate license who are driving unsupervised for the first time; 3. 16-year-old drivers with an intermediate license who previously drove unsupervised for at least four months with a school license. METHODS: The young drivers’ vehicles were equipped with an event-triggered video recording device for 24 weeks. Half of the participants received feedback regarding their driving, and the other half received no feedback at all and served as a control group. The number of safety-relevant events per 1,000 miles (i.e., “event rate”) was analyzed for 90 participants who completed the study. RESULTS: On average, the young drivers who received the video-based intervention had significantly lower event rates than those in the control group. This finding was true for all three groups. An effect of experience was seen for drivers in the control group; the 16-year-olds with driving experience had significantly lower event rates than the 16-year-olds without experience. When the intervention concluded, an increase in event rate was seen for the school license holders, but not for either group of 16-year-old drivers. There is strong evidence that giving young drivers video-based feedback, regardless of their age or level of driving experience, is effective in reducing the rate of safety-relevant events relative to a control group who do not receive feedback. Specific comparisons with regard to age and experience indicated that the age of the driver did not have an effect on the rate of safety-events, while experience did. Young drivers with six months or more of additional experience behind the wheel had nearly half as many safety-relevant events as those without that experience.

An 11.6 km research project was constructed in 1994 on a portion of Iowa Highway 21 in Iowa County, from U.S. 6 to Iowa Highway 212. This research is intended to evaluate the effect of four primary variables on long term performances of the PCC concrete overlay, commonly called whitetopping. The variables are thickness (50 mm, 100 mm, 150 mm, and 200 mm), joint spacing (0.6 m squares, 1.2 m squares, 1.8 m squares, and 4.6 m spacing), fiber use (concrete with and without polypropolene fibers) and surface preparation (patch only, scarifying the surface, and cold-in-place recycling). After two years, only two sections exhibit a small amount of debonding and distress cracking. Both sections are 50 mm thick. Within each of these two sections, only 2% of the area is affected. Two other 50 mm thick sections have a small number of cracks but no debonding has been found. No adverse effects of these cracks are evident. Three asphalt overlay sections were also constructed. In each asphalt section, transverse cracks have recently been found. At two years of age, the research sections are performing very well. An insignificant number of cracks and no distressed areas have been found in any research sections thicker than 50 mm.

IN BRIEF • More than one in three 11th graders drank alcohol in the past month. • For every four 11th graders in Iowa, one engaged in binge drinking in the past month. • Binge drinking is defined as four or more drinks for females and five or more for males on the same occasion (i.e., at the same time or within a couple of hours of each other) on at least one day in the past 30 days. • A drink refers to one half ounce of alcohol (one 12-oz beer, one 5-oz glass of wine, or one 1-oz shot of 100 proof distilled spirits).
