Michael Ring (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I intended to ask the question raised by Deputy O'Dowd. Is data available on people who were tested following accidents who did not fail an alcohol test but who were found to have taken drugs? Such data would show the amount of people tested. I agree with the remarks of Deputy O'Dowd. We must do something as this is a very serious problem. The country is rife with drugs and the problem is increasing in every section of society. Some people are driving like lunatics killing others on the roads and we must do something about it.
