  • Abstract:
    Following two decades of progress dealing with alcoholimpaired

    driving, greater attention is now being

    directed toward the issue of driving while impaired by

    drugs. Currently, there is far less information related to drug-impaired

    driving than alcohol-impaired driving. This report

    describes a study on the extent of drug use by drivers.

    A random survey of drivers was conducted at pre-selected

    locations in British Columbia from Wednesday to Saturday

    nights in June 2008. The purpose was to collect information

    on the prevalence of alcohol and drug use among nighttime

    drivers. Those surveyed were asked to provide a voluntary

    breath sample to measure their alcohol use and an oral fluid

    sample to be tested subsequently for the presence of drugs.

    Of the 1,533 vehicles selected, 89% of drivers provided a

    breath sample and 78% provided a sample of oral fluid.
