Voas, R., K. Blackman, A.S. Tippetts, and P. Marques (2002). Evaluation of a Program to Motivate Impaired Driving Offenders to Install Ignition Interlocks

Results:

Interlocks are associated with a major reduction in DUI recidivism while on the vehicle of the offender. However, the small number of DUI offenders who willingly install the interlock to drive legally limits the effectiveness of these devices.

Results:

Interlocks are associated with a major reduction in DUI recidivism while on the vehicle of the offender. However, because few offenders elect to participate, the program produces only a small (5.9%) overall reduction in the recidivism rate of all DUI offenders.

Results:

The overall level of crime in the area was very low, both before and after, so the results
have to be interpreted with caution. A decrease in break-ins (and possibly vandalism) to commercial premises, but little or no change in the incidence of most other offences. No change in levels of disorderly behaviour.
