Drug Driving: what do you know?

Drug driving has always been illegal under Section 4 of the Road Traffic Act (RTA) 1988, driving whilst unfit through drink or drug. But it is now an offence under Section 5A of the Road Traffic Act 1988, driving while over the prescribed limit (OPL), as with drink driving.
