Research has shown that the problem of driving while impaired by drugs has become comparable in seriousness to alcohol-impaired driving. In order to inform driving school staff and young drivers about drug-impaired driving, the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse (CCSA) has created an engaging toolkit that provides evidence-based information.
The toolkit covers:
-
The effects of different types of drugs on the body and driving.
-
The ability of law enforcement to detect drug-impaired drivers and take corresponding legal action.
-
The dangers of drug-impaired driving for young and new drivers.
