What’s needed to improve the drug driving issue in Victoria?

In response to the growing drug driving problem in Victoria and increased government funding to tackle the issue, RACV interviewed experts to investigate the regulatory and non-regulatory management of drug driving in Victoria and identified key areas of improvement. There was strong emphasis for further research to be undertaken to improve the cost-effectiveness and relevance of drug driving laws and roadside drug testing (RDT). Interviewees stressed the power of education and therapeutic approaches that combat drug driving as part of a broader public health issue. Overall, effective implementation of these strategies will involve collaboration between government and non-governmental institutions.
