Presentation of the research project IMMORTAL - Impaired Motorists, Methods of Roadside Testing and Assessment for Licensing.

IMMORTAL specifies a research programme concerning the accident risk associated with different forms of driver impairment and the identification of 'tolerance levels' applied to licensing assessment and roadside impairment testing (including drug screening). Thus, IMMORTAL is focused on two societal needs that both contribute to quality of life, namely mobility and safety. IMMORTAL will provide added community value in terms of the generalisation of conclusions relevant to EU policy and standardisation of driver testing and assessment methods with respect to EEC directives.
