Abstract After reviewing previous enforcement programs designed to reduce driving while impaired (DWI). it is proposed that DWI enforcement could be more effective if it is conducted more efficiently. A number of legislative changes which may improve efficiency are discussed including: per se laws, lower legal limits, random roadside checks, random breath testing, mandatory blood tests for injured drivers, administrative adjudication and short-term licence suspensions. Several operational changes are also addressed: police officer selection and training, use of visual detection cues, timing and location of enforcement. It is concluded that DWI enforcement could be more effective if highly publicized, periodic, night-time random breath testing blitzes were conducted in an unpredictable fashion as far as time and location.
