In typical enforcement jurisdictions, how many DWI violations typically result in an arrest?

The answer is based on typical enforcement patterns where law enforcement agencies establish arrest thresholds for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) violations. In many jurisdictions, statistics indicate that on average, a significant number of DWI violations may lead to an arrest. The figure of 100 is often referenced as a standard benchmark that reflects enforcement practices, available resources, and public safety policies. This number can also represent a jurisdiction’s commitment to addressing impaired driving effectively, emphasizing the need for rigorous enforcement and the role that SFST plays in identifying impaired drivers accurately during these arrests.

The other numbers presented do not align with this established average and may either underrepresent or overestimate the common enforcement practices observed in many communities. Therefore, the choice of 100 as a typical average strikes a balance that underscores effective and prudent law enforcement measures in combating DWI offenses.
