在法律经济学的视野里,一般以惩罚确定性和惩罚严厉性这两个变量来考查惩罚的威慑效应,将醉驾入罪意味着提高了惩罚严厉性,但其成本高昂且会带来刑罚负效应,并非最优惩罚模式。诚然,将醉驾入罪能带来一定的刑罚威慑效应,但是,如果配置刑罚并非必须或者说有其他更好的替代方法,如果配置刑罚的成本太过高昂同时又会带来不必要的刑罚负效应,那么这些问题便会削弱甚至抵消刑罚带来的威慑效应,最终是得不偿失。 In the field of law and economics, the punitive deterrent effect is usually examined by two variables: punitive certainty and severe punitive punishment. Punishing drunk driving means improving the severity of punishments, but the cost is high and penalty will be brought Effect, not the optimal punishment mode. Admittedly, drunken driving can bring certain penalty deterrent effects. However, if the penalty is not necessary or there are other alternatives, if the cost of configuring penalties is too high and the penalty will be unnecessarily negative Effect, then these problems will weaken or even counter the deterrent effect brought by the penalty. Ultimately it will outweigh the benefits.
