Within the IMMORTAL research programme the risk of accidents associated with different driver impairments and the identification of ‘tolerance levels’ applied to licensing assessment and roadside impairment testing are analysed. The Policy Workpackage within the IMMORTAL programme identifies relevant information to support policy makers in the area of driver impairment. One of the results of this workpackage is a detailed cost-benefit analysis of potential impairment countermeasures (deliverable P2). The draft report on the cost-benefit analysis is presented at a workshop, called ‘Cost-benefit analysis of impairment countermeasures’. In this workshop the impairment factors, methodology and results are presented and discussed. The workshop was held on15 September 2004 in Brussels. In this report the presentations, discussions and results of the workshop are presented. In the annex you will find a list of participants and the programme of the workshop.
