Episode 121: Road tests, overdose deaths, involuntary intoxication

from Driving Law · host Driving Law

With road tests interrupted by Covid-19, Kyla and Paul check in to see how examiners are coping with the backlog. There was saddening news that overdose deaths have reached record-breaking levels in BC. Could we apply lessons from impaired driving law to drug enforcement in order to quell the crisis? Kyla and Paul discuss a case involving a man charged with impaired driving who said he unwittingly mixed alcohol and prescription drugs. He ran a defence of involuntary intoxication and won. There's also a new Ridiculous Driver of the Week.
