Drug-Impaired Driving Call to Action 

 
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration kicked off its drug-impaired driving initiative with a summit that brought together key stakeholders, including safety partners, data and policy experts, law enforcement and criminal justice professionals, toxicologists and drug recognition experts to start a national dialogue on how to combat drug-impaired driving. 

Drug-impaired driving is against the law in all 50 States, and NHTSA is making the drug-impaired driving problem a top priority to ensure that U.S. roads, communities and families are safe from impaired drivers; even as a national opioid epidemic affects our communities, and an increasing number of Americans have access to marijuana.
