The Negligent-Operator Treatment Evaluation System (NOTES) has provided decision makers with biennial cost-effectiveness analyses of the Department of Motor Vehicles negligent-operator (neg-op) program. The neg-op program consists of four levels; (1) warning letter, (2) notice of intent to suspend, (3) probation hearing and (4) probation-violator suspension. The present evaluation was based on the driving records of 338,743 violators who were assigned to one of three lower-level neg-op programs (Levels 1 to 3) or to a no-treatment control group. Level 4 was evaluated indirectly using data from Level 3 groups. Interventions at all four program levels produced statistically significant reductions in traffic citations and, with the exception of Level 2, resulted in statistically significant reductions in accidents. During the period covered by this report, it is estimated that the neg-op program prevented 1,500 accidents per year. At Level 3, there was statistically significant evidence that drivers with prior citations for driving while suspended were less responsive to the treatment.
