The Netherlands is facing a problem with drivers being caught behind the wheel while under the influence of drugs. Police in the country began using a new testing system to identify drug use amongst drivers in mid-2017. Since that time, 1,250 drivers have been charged for driving under the influence of drugs. Of note is that around 60% of those charged with driving under the influence of drugs are aged between 18 and 30, while over 50% of the offenders had been using more than one drug at the time of arrest.
