What is an Assessment and a Driver Safety Plan?
- An assessment is conducted by a trained clinical staff member to identify how alcohol and/or other drugs have impacted the individual’s life.
- The assessment and Driver Safety Plan ordinarily takes approximately one hour, although in some cases the time may vary. The clinical staff member will make a determination/finding at the end of the assessment and recommend various Driver Safety Plan options.
- A Driver Safety Plan is developed to assist individuals in avoiding any further intoxicated driving arrests and also to comply with Wisconsin Statutes (Laws.)
- All information is kept strictly confidential in keeping with Federal Regulation (42 CFR Part II).
- If an individual is to be incarcerated after being convicted, it will be necessary to complete an assessment prior to receiving work release (Huber privileges) from the correctional facility.
- The costs associated with a Driver Safety Plan vary from agency to agency; this will be discussed with the individual at the assessment. Each individual will be responsible for payment to the specific facility to fulfill the requirements of the Driver Safety Plan. While insurance may not cover the cost of the assessment, it may cover certain types of programs outlined in the Driver Safety Plan.
