*5208 $aDrunk driving not only causes public and individual harm but also leads to economic costs with severe consequences for society. Research on the Driving Under Influence (DUI) phenomenon in many countries was initiated to improve public safety, prevention and rehabilitation of the DUI offenders. Research results and experiences from other countries on DUI may not be directly applied to Swedish conditions because of different legislations, norms and attitudes towards drunk driving. The main purpose thus has been to investigate and analyse Swedish DUI offenders with respect to their alcohol problems, detection, crime records, psychosocial characteristics, personality traits and mental health. At least half of the suspected DUI offenders had alcohol problems, including those assumed offenders with a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) below the allowed Swedish legal limit. Manner and time of detection of DUI are significant for the type of offender being identified. Criminality among Swedish DUI offenders is substantially higher than among Swedes in general. Swedish DUI offenders seem to be underprivileged in social dimensions including education and financial standing as compared to Swedish standard. DUI offenders have, despite low scores in Conscientiousness (common with substance abuse and antisocial personality profiles), significantly low scores in the Openness (to experience) domain.
