Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Are you using this to target people?

Drug use is on the rise across New Zealand, and this is equally evident in the number of people who test positive for drugs following an injury or death on our roads.

Drug use is not specific to one group of people. Our role is to stop drivers who endanger their lives or others by driving after recently taking an impairing drug.
If you get stopped, and we test you for drug driving, and you test positive – you have broken the law.
