Abstract:

In May 2004, a group representing toxicologists, drug recognition experts (DREs), and prosecutors active in the area of driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) cases, was convened under the auspices of the National Safety Council’s Committee on Alcohol and Other Drugs (CAOD), and its subcommittee on Drugs: Pharmacology and Toxicology. The panel1 was charged with identifying problems with the current system of prosecuting drug-impaired driving cases, from the point of detection through adjudication. The discussions were wide ranging, and this report focuses on the recurrent themes and major issues identified. The panel was also encouraged to identify solutions to the problems, and to assign responsibility for follow-up.
