Abstract:

This is the final report of a four-year study of drinking drivers. On the basis of analyses of over 4,000 cases (approximately 1400 of whom were driver's license applicants who had no convictions for drunk-driving, and the remainder had been convicted at least once of drunk-driving), a simplified prediction model was developed which improves the discrimination between drinking drivers and non-drinking drivers by approximately 10%. A similar level of improvement was achieved for recidivist drunk-drivers compared with one-time drunk-drivers. In addition an experimental evaluation of the effects of different intervention' methods, which included AA, an Alcoholic Rehabilitation Center, films and lectures and different forms of group therapy, compared with a control group which were given conventional treatment, was carried out. The results were inconclusive, but suggested that for a short one-year follow-up period, there is little difference between the conventional and the experimental treatment methods, or among different experimental treatment methods. An extended follow-up, now under way, may invalidate this negative conclusion. /Abstract from report summary page/
