driving instructor training drugs and alcohol

Drugs are becoming more and more common among young people. It is the most popular at the high school and it becomes really serious problem. The government is trying to do something about it, but as you probably can see the results are rather poor. Additionally we can see the same problem with alcohol. As a matter of fact alcohol is also a drug. The only difference is that it is legal and everyone is able to buy it in his or her local shop. This fact leads to a situation in which the alcohol is being sold even to people who are under age. People are using both alcohol and drugs even during some serious everyday activities, like during their work. That is why it is important to educate people how to recognize a person under the influence of alcohol or drugs. I was recently taking part in a driving instructor training and even there was a lecture about this. It is especially important that on the road there might be victims among other drivers. It was one of the most interesting lectures during this course and I am happy that I was able to take part in it. Did you have similar lecture at your driving instructor training? Let me know in the comments.
