IMMORTAL specifies a research programme concerning the accident risk associated with different forms of driver impairment and the identification of 'tolerance levels' applied to licensing assessment and roadside impairment testing (including drug screening). Task R4.6 of the work package R4 "Alcohol, drugs and medicines" formulates a synthesis based on the outcome of the research tasks by linking the results of the various studies in work package R4 "Alcohol, drugs and medicines" and gives recommendations for further action.
