abstract="A telephone survey of 416 drinking driving offenders was conducted to determine whether or not license suspension was associated with unemployment or job instability. Half of the subjects were convicted offenders who had undergone suspension, and half were offenders who were recently arrested and had not undergone suspension. These two groups were compared regarding incidence and length of unemployment during the prior year. Groups did not differ significantly on incidence or length of unemployment. Frequency of driving was compared between the two groups. Although 69% of suspended offenders admitted driving under suspension, reported frequency of driving was less for suspended than nonsuspended offenders. Costs and perceived social and economic consequences of conviction and suspension were examined. Additionally, disposition of the DUI charges was determined for the recently arrested group, and associations between socioeconomic variables and disposition were determined.<p />",
