摘要: |
Driving under the influence of drugs is common among those arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol, and it is less frequently detected, discouraged, or treated when compared with drunk driving. The various scientific and technical parameters that have restrained prevention/deterrence strategies to deal with drugged driving are discussed in detail. To prevent drug-related traffic accidents, law enforcement officials must be able to detect drivers under the influence of drugs as they routinely do now with alcohol detection devices. The availability of technologically advanced on-site drug-testing devices that are capable of providing immediate, accurate, and reliable results provides a unique opportunity to effectively apply this technology in traffic safety and in the enforcement of drugs and driving laws. |
