title: Sex differences in the distribution of traffic law enforcement.
abstract: All instances of formal traffic law enforcement during a two week period in Western Australia were categorized by type of offence and by the age and sex of the offender. A number of apparent anomalies in the distribution of law enforcement were discovered. In particular young men were overrepresented in the enforcement figures and women underrepresented, even after allowing for exposure.
