abstract="This report is a summary of a recent comprehensive evaluation of the Colorado Alcohol- and Drug-Impaired Driving (DUI) program. Three independent computerized data systems provide most information for a DUI tracking system. Key findings include the following: 1) there is currently no way to link the three systems needed for DUI tracking, 2) Administrative License Sanctions occur with certainty (91%) and swiftness (average = 35 days). 3) the Judicial component was 76% conviction rate with evidence of wide variability among judicial districts, and 4) repeat offenders constitute between 25% and 35% of the DUI problem. A DUI tracking system utilizing a common identifier would facilitate identification of loopholes in the current program and would provide a basis for evaluating the effectiveness of new strategies to counter DUI.<p />",
