Huh, it's weird that the one crime that they commit as much as their percentage in the country is drunk driving. Everything else they're way over.

Actually, it's not that weird. Because you need to usually own a car to do that :D

In the US, this phenomenom is not that huge, but in Finland, driving a car costs so fucking much more than in the US, that the immigrants are wayyyyy under-represented in pretty much all driving-related crimes (from parking fines to speeding tickets), because they don't have the money to drive. In pretty much all other crimes they are over-represented, up to 17x more likely to for example commit rapes, even after adjusting for age, sex, income, education etc.
