Arms	Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental Brief motivational interview	Behavioral: Brief motivational interview The brief motivational interview is a non-confrontational, patient-centered discussion between a counselor (e.g., social worker, nurse, physician, or psychologist) and an at-risk individual during which the individual's motivation and confidence to change health-related behaviors are explored.
2: No Intervention No discussion

Detailed Description:

Despite extensive legislative, law enforcement, and public awareness efforts, driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) remains a major cause of mortality and loss of years of productive life. A brief motivational interview (BI) is a non-confrontational, patient-centered discussion during which the individual's motivation and confidence to change health-related behaviors are explored. Previous studies of BIs in health care settings suggest that BIs administered after hospitalization for alcohol-related injury reduce the likelihood of repeat injury hospitalization and arrest for DUI.
