Field Sobriety Tests: An Overview

An increase in drug use has led to an increase in officers contacting people driving a vehicle while high.  Standardized Field Sobriety Tests are tests designed for officers to detect impairment.  Originally, the tests were validated using people who were intoxicated on alcohol.  This presentation discusses ways to overcome these challenges in court and reviews scientific research studies, which have tested the sensitivity of field sobriety tests on drug impaired drivers.
