| Summary: |
For some of the off enses against road security in Spain, the
current punishment is the so-called �trabajos en benefi cio
de la comunidad� �TBC� (community benefi t work). But, in
practice, implementation problems have been found and
particularly, among others, by the increasing commission
of traffi c off enses and the lack of enough social work posts
or vacancies required to perform these community tasks.
Both the recent amendment of the Criminal Code and the
regulatory legislation help develop the �TBCs� by means of
road security workshops described in this article. They seem
to give a purpose to this alternative to custodial sentences
or detention orders and have become of utmost interest
as one of the fi rst experiences of this nature in Spain. The
workshops that were developed on a monthly basis during
2010 are described, from their fi rst year of experience
in Guipuzcoa (in the Basque autonomous Community) by
detailing their structure, dynamics and tasks of both training
and public interest nature carried out by the inmates.
The implementation of these workshops has mitigated the
diff erences perceived in the application of the TBC punishment
by providing it with a purpose and overcoming the
criticism to which it had been exposed. These workshops
have responded in an effi cient matter to the preventive
role they have been attributed in terms of road security |
