"Driving with Care: Education and Treatment of the Underage
Impaired Driving Offender "is a supplementary guide for the Driving
with Care Series. It deals specifically with Adolescent/young adult
impaired driving, which presents a host of special challenges and
special treatment issues. Underage impaired driving represents 15%
of the DUI arrests nationwide, which translates into roughly
150,000 individuals a year. Underage drivers present a special
challenge for education and treatment as their motivation to drink
and drive is often quite different from the adult offender. Thus,
the authors have compiled a rich set of educational protocols and
treatment strategies that can supplement the various levels of
treatment provided in all three Driving with Care workbooks.
Section I provides a theoretical foundation for understanding
underage impaired driving, including the scope, incidence, and
prevalence of the problem and defines the causal and risk factors
associated with underage drinking and driving. It also defines and
covers legal and regulatory interventions that have been effective
for treatment and provides guidelines that enhance the treatment
and rehabilitation of this group. Section II provides specific
guidelines and enhancements for the delivery of DWC for underage
drivers, including activities, handouts, and various assessment
tools.
