Abstract

Factors associated with driving under the influence of cannabis (DUIC) and related road crashes among 422 commercial drivers were studied. A multivariate analysis was conducted to understand the associations between risk factors and DUIC and car crashes respectively. Young age, OR = 3.6, 95% CI 1.9-7.6; cannabis abuse, OR = 4.1, 95% CI, 1.9-8.2; cannabis dependence, OR = 4.4, 95% CI, 2.1- 7.8; hire- driver, OR = 5.3, 95% CI, 2.0- 14.2, remained associated with DUIC after model adjustments while previous DUIC accidents, OR = 4.5, 95% CI, 2.2 -11.0; combined DUIC and driving under influence of alcohol (DUIA), OR = 5.1, 95% CI, 2.7 – 14.0, remained associated with cannabis related crashes after model adjustment. DUIC increases the risk of involvement in a crash most particularly if there is associated DUIA. Key Words: Cannabis, driving under influence, Nigeria, road crashes, commercial drivers

大麻的使用与交通事故有关吗?尼日利亚长途商业司机的研究
对422名商业司机中与大麻影响下驾驶有关的因素和相关的道路碰撞进行了研究。通过多变量分析分别了解危险因素与DUIC和车祸之间的关系。年轻,OR = 3.6, 95% CI 1.9-7.6;大麻滥用,OR = 4.1, 95% CI, 1.9-8.2;大麻依赖,OR = 4.4, 95% CI, 2.1- 7.8;模型调整后,雇佣司机(OR = 5.3, 95% CI, 2.0- 14.2)仍与DUIC相关,而之前的DUIC事故(OR = 4.5, 95% CI, 2.2 -11.0);经模型调整后,DUIC和酒精影响下驾驶(DUIA)的合并(OR = 5.1, 95% CI, 2.7 - 14.0)仍与大麻相关的车祸有关。DUIC增加了参与撞车的风险,特别是如果有相关的DUIA。关键词:大麻,酒后驾驶,尼日利亚,道路交通事故,商业司机
