This study focuses on the screening of convicted drink drivers following suggestions that repeat drink driving offenders are more likely to be involved in alcohol-related fatal crashes than those with no convictions. With treatment it was considered that the involvement of recidivist drivers in fatal accidents could be reduced. A sample of 3585 individuals were assessed for 49 proximal and distal characteristics. The results showed that it was possible to identify potential recidivists, in particular from a subset of characteristics.
