Drug driving test given the go ahead

Lets hope it works .I would hazard a guess that the number of people driving while under the influence of drugs is equally as much as those who drink and drive .

Quote:
A testing kit to detect drugs in drivers has been approved for police use across the UK, the Home Office says.
The kit will analyse a mouth swab for traces of cannabis. Testing capability for other drugs is being developed.
It will be used at police stations, and removes the need to have a doctor take a blood sample for drug testing.
