摘要：	The central question of this workshop is: How can it reliably be established that a person has consumed alcohol and/or other drugs in amounts that are illegal and/or may cause harm to that person or others? Many people think of this as a relatively easy task, conjuring up images of the "falling down drunk," although even this obvious display may be something else, for example, diabetic shock. The reality is that even when people have high blood alcohol concentrations known to cause significant impairment, it can be difficult for experts and laypersons alike to detect alcohol, especially among seasoned users and among people who wish to remain undetected. Detecting drugs other than alcohol presents its own set of problems, and in many cases the behavioral cues are less obvious than when alcohol has been consumed. The workshop's focus is on police detection of alcohol and other drugs among drivers of private motor vehicles.
