Drunk driving arrests of women increase

Hard to know what to make of this. It would help if they provided a little context. What are the general trends in drunk driving arrests? In alcohol consumption?

Arrests for women driving under the influence jumped by nearly 30 percent during the decade ending in 2007, according to a study released Wednesday by the U.S. Transportation Department.

I suppose it should be too much of a surprise give we've been seeing increases in binge drinking by girls.
