The research is quantitative, utilizing a questionnaire as a data collection tool from a randomly sampled group of 360 adolescents in the northern region. The data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation, and structural equation modeling. The research findings indicate that not - drinking and driving behavior of adolescents is at a moderate level. Factors influencing not - drinking and driving behavior among adolescents in the northern region are not - drinking and driving Intention, attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control and perceived Legal measures at much level. The causal relationship model was congruent with the empirical data. At a .01 significant level, factors have positive direct influence on not - drinking and driving intention include attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control that explain variance of not - drinking and driving intention (R2) about 84%, factors have positive direct influence on not - drinking and driving behavior include not - drinking and driving intention, attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control and perceived Legal measures respectively that explain variance of not - drinking and driving behavior (R2) about 80%.
