One Way to Reduce Repeated DUIs and Drunk Driving Incidents

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

Based on various alcohol related statistics and facts, in the U.S. as in most, if not all, developed countries in the world, alcohol abuse in general and people who drive and drink in particular is or is becoming a major societal problem.  As a result, in some countries, some new and different approaches have been developed in the hopes of significantly reducing the number of “repeat” DUIs, DWIs, or drunk driving incidents.

For instance, in some states in the U.S. part of the DUI course curriculum requires offenders to meet face-to-face with the person or persons they injured in an alcohol-related accident.  In these meetings, the people on the receiving end of an alcohol-related accident reveal their distressing and painful stories of how a drunk driver forever changed their lives.  The rationale behind such a program is that by personalizing the suffering and the pain that driving and drinking can lead to might make the offender stop and think about what he or she is doing before getting behind the wheel after drinking.
