◇ Host> And we note that the police will conduct a special control for driving under the influence of narcotic substances. Everyone will be aware of drink driving controls, but I have never heard of a special drug driving control. Did it happen?

◆Kim Sung Soo> Don’t you drink a lot at the end of the year? In this case, there is a high probability of driving under the influence of alcohol for about two months. But in this case, the disqualification period has been extended to about three months, and as you said, we’re going to be dealing with drugged driving, so we’re interested in that as well.

◇I believe> They say this is the first time the police have cracked down on drunk driving, but I wonder how to do it. I don’t think that drugs will be detected just because they breathe, like drunk driving, but how will they be checked?

◆Kim Sung-soo> Looking at the current police briefing data, you can see a simple overview set. So, if you put saliva or saliva in a simple test kit, it will be absorbed by the sponge, and if there is a positive drug test in the portion after it is absorbed by the sponge, it appears that this is the system in which the drug test is positive. It’s not yet known exactly how accurate the data is in this regard, so we’ll have to wait and see.

◇Anchor> But the problem is that there is a loophole in the suppression. Don’t the police have the power to arrest drunk people by force? Is it true that the measurement of narcotic substances is not mandatory?

◆Kim Sung-soo> In the case of a breathalyzer test, it is a crime to fail a breathalyzer test. Therefore, under section 148-2 of the Road Traffic Act, if you refuse to comply, you can be penalized if you are expected to have been driving under the influence. Thus, it provides imprisonment for a term of more than one year or less than five years or a fine of more than 5 million won or less than 20 million won. If you refuse to comply with driving under the influence of drugs or driving under the influence of drugs, there are no criminal laws, so even if you get a warrant and check it later, you may not be able to arrest him on the spot events If you can’t arrest him at the scene at the time, isn’t a big part where other victims can eventually happen while driving, whether it’s driving drunk or drugged? Therefore, there is a story about whether there should be any effective revision of the law from this part.

◇Anchor> I think we can only expect an alarming effect for now, but I told you in a report some time ago. Ma is still slow to introduce relevant legislation in the National Assembly. What punishment will I receive if I am caught driving after using drugs?

◆Kim Sung-soo> Currently, he may be punished for violating the Narcotics Control Act. In this regard, as I said, the Traffic Law provides for imprisonment of up to three years or a fine of up to 10 million won for driving under the influence of drugs or drugs. Some say the real risk is similar to drunk driving. For drunk driving, if it exceeds 0.2 years, imprisonment for more than two years or a fine of more than 10 million won or less than 20 million won can be considered very serious.

Therefore, there are some stories that suggest that there should be a revision in this part as well. Also, if the accident occurred while driving under the influence of drugs and resulted in injury or death, there is a section that can be punished in the same way as drunk driving under the Special Pricing Act. However, since this can be very severely punished, I think I should say a little about it.
