Abstract Aim: The aim of our study is to establish the point at which a high blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in patients admitted to a hospital’s emergency department (ED) after an automobile accident can increase the severity of the injury and influence the survival and death rates. Materials and Methods: Our study is a prospective performed on patients ≥18 years of age admitted to the ED for in-car road accidents (ICRA) between September 15, 2011 and September 14, 201214-09-2012. Information such as demographic features, trauma score systems, BACs, hospital charges, discharge, hospitalization, and death of the patients was recorded. Results: The BACs of 52 out of a total of 324 patients were determined to be above normal limits (50 mg/dL). The clinical condition of patients with a BAC above normal limits was relatively worse (42.9%) than those with a BAC within normal limits (p
