The National Transportation Safety Board has reviewed recent national and international efforts to control drunk driving and has concluded that 'general deterrence' programs afford the most promising approach for the short-term reduction in alcohol-related deaths and injuries on our highways. Further, upon consideration of the information presented in this report, the Safety Board believes that the sobriety checkpoint and administrative license revocation procedures are potentially effective deterrents that warrant broader application by the States. The National Safety Board, therefore, recommended that sobriety checkpoints and administrative license revocations become an integral part of a State's comprehensive alcohol and highway safety program.
