It depends on what the punishment is. Fines and confiscation of driver's licences seem to have not that much effect. However, some areas are coming up with innovative programs to deal with high risk or repeat offenders. The Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia started a traffic offenders program in 2006 which requires certain traffic offenders, mainly drink drivers and repeat reckless drivers, to attend weekly classes where they are given a reality check by officers from the ambulance, fire and police services, medical professionals, psychologists, trauma counselors, department of main roads workers and solicitors. To date, the program seems to be quite effective. Other programs around the world include visiting hospital trauma centers, speaking to survivors of car crashes who have sustained permanent disabilities and presentations about acquired brain injuries from car crashes. These programs would seem to be far more effective than fining drink drivers and repeat traffic offenders.
