Wooldridge Source: Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration: &lt;U+201C&gt;A Digest of State Alcohol-Highway Safety Related Legislation,&lt;U+201D&gt; U.S. Department of Transportation, NHTSA. I used the third (1985), eighth (1990), and 13th (1995) editions. Data loads lazily.

datasets

Students learning both econometrics and R may find the introduction
to both challenging. The wooldridge data package aims to lighten the task by efficiently
loading any data set found in the text with a single command. Data sets have been
compressed to a fraction of their original size. Documentation files contain page numbers,
the original source, time of publication, and notes from the author suggesting avenues for
further analysis and research. If one needs an introduction to R model syntax, a
vignette contains solutions to examples from chapters of the text.
Data sets are from the 7th edition (Wooldridge 2020, ISBN-13: 978-1-337-55886-0),
and are backwards compatible with all previous versions of the text.

admnrev function

A data.frame with 153 observations on 5 variables:<ul>
<li>state: state postal code</li>
<li>year: 85, 90, or 95</li>
<li>admnrev: =1 if admin. revoc. law</li>
<li>daysfrst: days suspended, first offense</li>
<li>daysscnd: days suspended, second offense</li>
</ul>

Format

This is not so much a data set as a summary of so-called &lt;U+201C&gt;administrative per se&lt;U+201D&gt; laws atthe state level, for three different years. It could be supplemented with drunk-driving fatalities for a nice econometric analysis. In addition, the data for 2000 or later years can be added, forming the basis for a term project. Many other explanatory variables could be included. Unemployment rates, state-level tax rates on alcohol, and membership in MADD are just a few possibilities.
