Bad Influence: The use of legal and illegal drugs is a growing menace on our roadways

Auto Club Group AAA, 2016
Today, impaired driving involves much more than just alcohol. It includes illegal drugs such as heroin, meth and even “bath salts.” It also includes prescription drugs, which can be abused by those with a prescription or, frequently, those who steal or obtain them from others. And often, drugs are mixed with alcohol, which by itself remains a menacing problem. There’s no doubt—drugged driving is increasing across the country and making impaired driving a more complicated issue to address.

Advocating for traffic safety has always been and will continue to be a top priority for AAA. We hope you find this publication to be informational and a valuable resource.
