Also we will raise as an introductory way, some considerations about the current problems of the so-called Vial Criminology and the legal and configuration genesis of these workshops Road Safety intended to fulfill a dual function: On the first hand, constituted as a conviction and therefore a retributive penological purpose, and secondly, to be valued as a psycho-educational tool for offenders, in order to try to prevent the repetition of unlawful conduct and criminal recidivism.
