Does License Suspension Work?
Well, as many have made a point of license suspensions simply do not work. A conservative estimate from MADD is that 75% of people under a license suspension continue to drive. MADD offers up a solution to this problem. They encourage states to lower the suspension times if an offender installs ignition interlock. This would allow someone to keep their job, contribute to their communities, attend treatment, and get their families where they need to go.
While statistics show that many continue to drive while on suspended occasionally we see the proof. In Kansas City police during a patrol spotted a station wagon going the wrong direction on a one way street. When they pulled him over the found that he had a suspend license. While this type of violation is not out of the ordinary, this was a special case. Mr. Jones had been driving on suspend driver’s license since his DUI in 1989. He had avoided the law for 21.
