Background:

The DWI Resource Center has a database containing details on every police reported crash in New Mexico from 1986 through 2013, and a database for every DWI arrest from July 1984 through December 2014. The Center has a complete understanding of the contents, form and quirks of this massive important data and the expertise to analyze and present the data in any way desired. Data can be presented as tables, graphs and maps.

The Center is always careful to ensure the privacy of protected individual information. Within that framework, the Center has unlimited abilities to collaborate with others on any type of research study of interest, in service to its mission to promote understanding of the DWI prevention systems and to reduce DWI death and injury.
