Close Up: Drugged Drivers

  12 mins
3 October 2007
Close Up (TVNZ)

On the same day the Government tabled new legislation to help police test motorists they suspect are driving while under the influence of drugs, Close Up joined some volunteer drug testers uncovering some alarming results in Lower Hutt. Police Minister Annette King today tabled the Land Transport Amendment Bill which will make it compulsory for drivers police suspect are on drugs to perform a roadside impairment test. A two year study into the emerging problem has revealed that 2-3 motorists a week are killed on New Zealand roads while drugs are present in their blood streams, and that New Zealand has a higher rate of people driving on drugs than than many other countries. Police Minister Annette King was in the Close Up studio to discuss the problem and the new legislation.
