REGISTER FOR THIS COURSE
Because of this topic’s national importance to public safety, NHTSA and the NJC are offering this course tuition-free to all judges who hear impaired driving cases. Limited scholarship funds for travel may be available. Unlike alcohol impaired driving, drugged driving has no bright line test for impairment. Drugged driving cases require a judge to utilize a variety of judicial tools to effectively adjudicate these cases. After this course, participants will be able to describe the major classes of drugs and how they affect driving; discuss what a drug recognition expert (DRE) does and qualifying him or her as an expert; identify effective and efficient sentencing options; and prepare a legally sufficient order for continued court supervision.
