Abstract:

A number of strategies have been used to reduce reoffenses among impaired drivers. These include sanctions intended to separate drinking from driving, sanctions that incapacitate offenders so that they cannot drive or cannot drink or cannot combine the two, and education and rehabilitation to reduce drinking problems and impaired driving. The Alcohol, Other Drugs, and Transportation Committee of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) convened a workshop to review and integrate the current state of knowledge about how best to deal with impaired driving offenders and to work towards an integrated model that can have the maximum effect on safety. Presentations were invited from committee members and others with specialized expertise. During the workshop, extensive discussion ensued after each presentation. The presenters then submitted the background papers. This report provides an overview of the information presented and the discussions among the participants. Also included are the background papers and presentations.
