Notes: All models estimated using GLM with link(log) and family(Gamma). The sample size decreases by 1,791 observations in Column 2 because enforcement data are limited to jurisdictions with UCR Coverage Indicator Scores >=70. Individual and county level variables, described in the note under Table 3, are also included. Standard errors clustered at the state-level in all models. Statistical significance using a two-tailed test is indicated as follows:

*

significant at 10%;

**

significant at 5%;

***

significant at 1%.
