N2 - The paper analyses risk behaviour as described by a group of convicted drink-drivers. Risk assessmentis seen as a part of a complicated process reflecting moral values in specific socio-culturalsettings and within a specific framework of time. The respondents’ retrospective accounts of theirdrink-driving are interpreted as part of moral identity negotiations, focusing on four dimensions:drink-driving as non-voluntary behaviour, drink-driving as strategic behaviour, drink-driving andcontrol, and drink-driving and ‘normalcy’. Central to these negotiations is the fact that manyrespondents come from social environments (be that friend groups or workmate groups) wheredrink-driving is common and that they therefore do not regard—or did not regard—drink-drivingas deviant behaviour.
