Résumé :
Nearly 125 international experts in drugged-driving from 14 nations gathered to discuss how available technology for drug-detection can be used with DUI laws to support strategies to reduce drugged-driving, and to develop a better understanding of the current problems with identifying, prosecuting, and treating drugged-drivers. Leading experts from various areas unique to drugged-driving made featured presentations during the first morning of the meeting. These presentations provided a backdrop for the issue setting and discussions of expert working-group panels during the remainder of the meeting. The symposium was organized as a working conference, and the agenda designed to produce this proceedings document to present the scope of the problem of drugged-driving, establish what we know and dont know, and document ongoing international efforts. A primary goal of the conference was to develop recommendations for future research, and propose specific strategic policy initiatives that the U.S. federal government as well as other governments of the world could consider to manage the problem of drugged-driving. Expert groups formed panels to focus on three issue areas: (Panel I) Identification of Drugged-Drivers; (Panel II) Enforcement and Prosecution Issues; and (Panel III) Treatment, Education and Prevention Issues.
