Law enforcement is shifting from alcohol impairment to drug testing for drivers, with a focus on cannabis. A behavioral approach is recommended for comprehensive roadside drug impairment detection.

Area of Science:

  • Forensic Science
  • Behavioral Science
  • Public Health

Context:

  • Historically, alcohol impairment detection dominated driver behavioral examinations.
  • Recent legislation on drug-impaired driving, particularly cannabis, necessitates updated law enforcement procedures.
  • Current French protocols involve medical evaluation and the Field Sobriety Test, a method used globally.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of current drug detection methods for drivers.
  • To advocate for a behavioral approach in roadside drug impairment assessments.
  • To address the rise in cannabis consumption among drivers.

Summary:

  • Law enforcement procedures are adapting from alcohol to drug detection, including cannabis.
  • France is considering a return to saliva tests for police-administered drug screening.
