Abstract:Perhaps the most effective administrative means of reducing the incidence of crashes involving DWI offenders is through driver license suspension or revocation. Because loss of the driving privilege is the ultimate means to controlling problem drivers, license suspension has a significant impact upon persons directly affected and also provides general deterrence to others who fear having their own license suspended.
