Epidemiological information is lacking for driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) in Puerto Rico. To examine the prevalence and correlates of DUI in Puerto Rico. Data are from a household sample of 1510 individuals, aged 18–64 years in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The response rate was 83%. The rate of 12 month self-reported DUI was 20% among men and 8% among women (p<.001). Twelve month DUI arrests were reported by 0.1% of men and 0.2% of women (p: ns) while lifetime arrests were reported by 6% of men and 0.7% of women (p<.001). Adjusted analyses showed that the number of hours of daily driving (OR=1.08, 95% CI=1.01–1.17; p<.05), male gender (OR=1.66, 95% CI=1.07–2.58; p<.01), having more liberal drinking norms (OR=4.81; 95% CI=2.61–8.84; p<.01) and more positive attitudes towards drinking (OR=4.58; 95% CI=1.28–16.31; p<.01), consuming a higher number of weekly drinks (OR=1.05; 95% CI: 1.03–1.07; p<.001), and binge drinking (OR=2.60; 95% CI=1.62–4.16; p<.001) were factors of risk for self-reporting DUI. A lifetime arrest was associated with being separated or divorced (OR=2.7; 95%CI=1.04–7.36; p<.05), male gender (OR=5.25; 95CL=1.93–14.26; p<.001), more liberal drinking norms (OR=6.97; 95CL=:2.37–20.48; p<.001), and illicit drug use (OR=2.82; 95%CI=1.25–6.35; p<.001). The prevalence of self-reported DUI in San Juan, Puerto Rico was high, but the proportion of people arrested for DUI in a span of 12 months or during their lifetime was low. Stricter enforcement of DUI laws may be necessary to minimize DUI in urban Puerto Rico.
