Drug Driving Bill w/ NESA - No One Ever Stands Alone: April 06, 2021

Currently, the Land Transport (Drug Driving) Amendment Bill is before select committee. The Bill aims to address driving under the influence of impairing drugs. Thresholds would be put in place that would determine whether a person would receive a criminal conviction or an infringement and a fine depending on the level of drug impairment.

News and Editorial Director Jemima Huston speaks to Leah Abrams from NESA - No One Ever Stands Alone, a charity promoting sober and drug free driving, about the Bill. They discuss why addressing drug driving is important and the issues with increasing the powers of the police.
