Abstract:DWI Courts are a relatively new approach to combatting alcohol-impaired driving that borrows from the Drug Court Model and is directed at repeat DWI offenders and offenders having high BACs at time of arrest. These court programs attack the source of the problem by taking a comprehensive approach to changing behavior that includes accountability and long-term treatment. Whereas there is a substantial body of research demonstrating the effectiveness of Drug Courts, the same depth of research is lacking for DWI Courts. NHTSA conducted a web-based survey of DWI Courts and DWI/Drug Courts (court programs that handle both DWI and drug offenders) in April through May 2015 in order to obtain detailed information on how DWI Courts were operating. NHTSA plans to use that information to help guide development of a program to evaluate DWI Courts.
