Abstract

Road accidents account for several thousand deaths and more than a million injured in the European Union. Costs resulting from road traffic accidents amount to more than 60 billion Euro annually. The number of accidents involving alcohol abuse is declining, whereas drug abuse and driving under the influence of drugs has increased dramatically. Surveys in different European countries have shown that approx. 1% of drivers have detectable quantities of illicit drugs in their body fluids.
