THE EFFECTS OF AN ALCOHOL-TRAFFIC PROJECT ON IMPRISONED DRUNKEN DRIVERS

DE WERKING VAN EEN ALCOHOL VERKEER PROJECT VOOR VERKEERSDELINQUENTEN

In the summer of 1983 the results were published of a study on a rehabilitation programme for drunken drivers in a Dutch prison. The programme was shown to be very successful, there being a 13 percent reduction in rates of recidivism. The authors of this article discuss why the programme was so successful, and give some recommendations for future research into such programmes. (Author/TRRL)
