High-Risk Drunk Driver
Solutions
Hardcore Drunk Drivers Need a Hardcore Solution
Hardcore Drunk Drivers (HCDDs), or High-Risk Impaired Drivers, are among the most dangerous drivers on the road. These alcohol-dependent drivers drink and drive again and again, repeatedly putting their own and others’ lives at risk. Helping them obtain recovery is even more challenging because HCDDs are highly resistant to behavioral change despite previous sanctions, treatment, or education.
SCRAM Continuous Alcohol Monitoring
Like a breathalyzer for the ankle, the SCRAM Continuous Alcohol Monitoring (SCRAM CAM) bracelet provides 24/7 transdermal alcohol testing for hardcore drunk drivers and high-risk individuals. By automatically sampling the wearer’s perspiration every 30 minutes, the SCRAM CAM bracelet eliminates testing gaps and promotes accountability.
SCRAM CAM is the hardcore solution that is proven to support long-term behavior change and provides wearers with the support they need while increasing community safety.
