Abstract	The Negligent-Operator Treatment Evaluation System provides annual cost-effectiveness analyses of the California Department of Motor Vehicles' Negligent-Operator (neg-op) program. The evaluation system is based on a comparison of the driving records of neg-ops (drivers with multiple traffic convictions and/or accident points) who are randomly assigned to an intervention or a no-contact control group. Three levels or progressively more severe neg-op interventions were evaluated in this manner; the fourth level intervention (the most severe) was evaluated indirectly using data from level 3 recidivists. Drivers at levels 1 and 2 were eligible to receive a standard intervention or an alcohol-tailored intervention. Only at level 3 was there a statistically significant reduction in total accidents due to the interventions, although there was some evidence that the interventions at levels 1 and 2 also reduced total accidents.
