  This edition of Traffic Tech briefly summarizes a large report, A How-to Guide for Conducting a Statewide Roadside Survey of Alcohol and Other Drugs, which details the steps for a State to conduct its own statewide roadside survey of the prevalence of alcohol and other drug use among drivers, important components of addressing impaired driving. This guide draws on these past experiences to provide start-to-finish guidance on how to develop and implement a statewide survey of alcohol and other drug prevalence among drivers. The guide includes information on how to develop a study plan, budget, and conduct specimen collection, research questions that can be addressed, personnel and equipment needed, and issues that may arise.
