Abstract

This paper outlines the findings from a series of focused interviews with 161 illicit drug users. The paper identifies drug driving as subset behaviour of drug use. Using the interviewees’ own words the reportage details aspects of the culture of drug driving from the user’s perspective. Key issues associated with education and intervention programs are identified.
