Abstract

This paper investigated habitual drunk drivers' characteristics by grouping them by the number of DUI records, and customized countermeasures for each group. Theoretical models to accommodate underlying causes for drunk driving, which adopted the form of a path analysis, were developed based on psychological variables. According to the psychological paths to drunk driving, each group showed different defense mechanisms and different senses of guilty, shame and embarrassment. This provided a rationale for differentiating countermeasures for each group. Habitual drunk drivers were found to have a strong propensity of self-justification due to their defense mechanism. Thereby, it would be useless to simply discourage them from drinking and driving. Rather, more active measures such as locking devices, invalidation of driver license, and group counseling should be taken to stop habitual drunk driving. Furthermore, since habitual drunk drivers showed high projection propensity, it is necessary to force them to participate in a sensibility training program, which might entail the amendment of related laws or regulations.

본 연구는 음주운전 전력(최근 5년간 단속 횟수) 집단별 음주운전과 관련한 심리학적 이론변수의 모형 구축 및 검정과 경로분석 등을 통하여 집단별 특성을 도출하고 상습적 음주운전자에 대한 대책을 제시하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과 상습적 음주운전에 대한 예방대책을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 음주운전과 관련한 운전자의 심리적 경로는 집단(회수)별로 방어기제와 죄의식, 수치심, 곤혹감 등에 많은 차이를 보여 음주운전 전력별로 대책의 차별화가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 상습적 음주운전자는 자기 합리화의 방어기제가 높은 것으로 나타나 단순 정보제공이나 집체 교육만으로 예방효과를 거두기는 곤란한 것으로 나타나 자동차 시건장치 및 운전면허 제한 제도의 도입, 그리고 집단 상담형태의 교육 및 처방이 이루어져야 할 것으로 분석되었다. 셋째, 상습적 음주운전자는 방어기제 중 특히 투사성이 높아 감수성 훈련과 같은 프로그램을 의무적으로 부과하는 제도적 보완이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.
