There has been a significant increase in the number of prosectutions for driving under the influence of Drugs (DUI Drugs), particularly prescription drugs, and driving under the combined influence of alcohol and drugs, also known as Combined Influence cases.
Drug Recognition experts are more frequently being called to the scene of DUI
investigations and accidents whenever there is evidence that the driver consumed prescription
or illicit drugs. Prior to the Drug Recognition Expert
program,
it was more difficult to prosecute and prove driving under the influence
of drugs. This is no longer the case in Orange County. The Orange County District Attorney's Office has assigned a special panel of District Attorneys to prosecute those believed to have been under the influence of drugs or drugs and alcohol.
Prosecutors are now charging drivers with DUI who have drug levels that are within
the prescribed, or therapeutic, levels.
