On this edition of Century: Driving and Drugs. Operating a vehicle
while under the influence of drugs, be they legal or illegal, is a
matter of concern to nations around the world and society as a whole.
Nations deal with these concerns in various ways. This was one of the
topics discussed recently at the Sixty-Eighth Session of the UN\'s
Commission on Narcotic Drugs in a side panel organized by the Italian
NGO Forum Droghe, entitled Driving and Substances: A New Approach to
Regulation. We hear presentations by two of the panelists: Paul
Armentano, Deputy Director of NORML, the National Organization for the
Reform of Marijuana Laws, and Georg Wurth, CEO of the German Hemp
Association.
