Six California communities were selected to participate in the study on basis of comparability and isolation from each other. Four of the communities' police departments implemented programs of sobriety checkpoints; the checkpoint configurations varied in terms of staffing level and mobility of the checkpoints. The fifth community's police department implemented a program of aggressive roving patrols that focused on DWI enforcement. The sixth community refrained from implementing any special DWI enforcement effort for the duration of the project and served as the experimental comparison site; statewide totals provided additional comparison. Logistic regression analysis indicated alcohol involved crashes declined significantly in the checkpoint sites, and did not change significantly at the comparison site during corresponding periods. Comparing with statewide data, the checkpoint communities' decline was more than 3 times greater. |
