The Behavior Impact of DUI Laws and Sanctions
Research Focus:
Deterrence and Social Control Theories
Abstract:
Determining whether legal sanctions administered by the
judicial court system or by local law enforcements are
effectively designed to reduce, discourage and/or deter people
from driving while impaired. There are various studies that
provide conflicting arguments on whether driving laws have
been a successful strategy in deterring drinking and driving
behavior. Deterrence theories are based on the assumption that
the perception and probability of certain severe punishment
discourages people from illegal activities. Deterrence theory
assumes that law breaking is inversely related to the severity of
punishment. Further, it is the deterrence model ideology that
law enforcement entities depend on to reduce DUI/DWI’s. The
social control theory expands on the deterrence model to
incorporate social influences. According to this theory drinking
laws are only one of many factors that influence DUI behavior.
Social stigma and perceived risk in committing the crime also
play a part in discouraging this type of behavior. Although there
has been little research conducted examining both deterrence
and social control theories and the impact on DUI behavior
proponents for these theories believe that innate makeup of
these two ideologies are effective enough to modify a person’s
