Examination of DWI Conviction Rate Procedures (Report)

This study examined how various jurisdictions across the country compute their DWI conviction rates.  Although it seems like there would be an obvious and standardized method, in reality various methods are used, making comparisons between jurisdictions difficult.  The objective of this study was to document if different formulas are used, determine the positives and negatives of different approaches, and recommend a conviction rate formula.  8.5" x 11", three color, 64 pages.
