    Reducing DUI-related collisions: evaluating the effectiveness of enhanced DUI enforcement

    No full text
    The purpose of this study was to determine whether a correlation existed between a city???s DUI rate and DUI Crash rate. The author???s hypothesis was that an increase in DUI arrest rate would lead to a decrease in DUI-related collisions. Arrest data, crash data and population data were drawn from RAND California for all cities in the State of California for the years of 2000 to 2009. This data were utilized to create variables for the percent change in DUI arrest rate and DUI crash rate from the first half of the decade (2000 to 2004) to the second half of the decade (2005-2009). These percent change variables were correlated using a Pearson???s bi-variate analysis. The results showed a weak positive correlation between the percent change in DUI arrest rates and DUI crash rates. This indicates that as DUI arrests increase, DUI-related crashes increase as well. Due to the limitations of this research model and the resulting weak positive correlation, further research will need to be conducted to determine, with greater certainty, the correlation between enhanced DUI enforcement and DUI-related collisions

    Effectiveness of Road Safety Educational Program for Pre-drivers about DUI: Practical Implication of the TPB in Developing New Preventive Program in Slovenia

    No full text
    AbstractMain purpose is to address effectiveness of educational program for pre-drivers regarding driving under influence of alcohol (DUI) or riding with intoxicated driver. Young drivers and participants are at over-average risk in traffic (European Commission, 2012), and DUI is one of major contributing factors (Elliot, 2004). We have designed and developed new road-safety educational program focusing on pre-drivers in high-schools and dealing with DUI taking into account various recommendations and concepts with the integration of different approaches. In the research we have used the Theory of planned behavior (TPB, Ajzen, 1985, 1991; Forward, 2010; Moan, 2013) as a basis of influencing the components of the model. Program has been evaluated with quasi-experimental research, measurements before-after and 1-month follow-up. There were 269 participants included (16 – 18 years old), which attended the integrated intervention program or control group. We have measured TPB components, as well as evaluation of the program. We’ve also measured phase of behavior change in accordance with Trans-theoretical model of change (TTM, Prochaska and DiClemente, 1983; 1999). Results show no significant effect of the intervention program on general attitudes and TPB components through time. There was an improvement regarding the process of change. Also the intervention group better evaluated the program and assessed the effects and satisfaction showing that there are some promising results. In discussion we address possible reasons for such results, as short duration of the program, very high results before the program etc. Practical implications of research are development and adaptation Slovene relevant instruments for measurement of TPB components for adolescents and DUI and to establish effective components of educational program to perform a road safety education with youngsters in high school level
