Responsibility.org Drugged Driving Grant Results: Nevada

Nevada DUID
Resource Type
State Highway Safety Showcase

In 2019, through a grant from the Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility (Responsibility.org) and GHSA, the Nevada Office of Traffic Safety contracted with Understanding Legal Marijuana, LLC., a company focused on providing training and consultation to states and local governments considering or dealing with the recent passage of legal marijuana initiatives, to host a training class titled “Marijuana DUI Investigations with Green Lab.”

The class was originally to be limited to 30 students, so registration priority was given to currently certified drug recognition experts (DREs) and DRE instructors. With registration numbers exceeding the student limit, a decision was made to accommodate everyone who applied. All in all, 32 students participated in the class, and the training provided was well received by all in attendance.

DREs from across the state were able to attend. The following agencies were represented during the training class:

  • The Nevada Highway Patrol
  • The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department
  • The Henderson Police Department
  • The Boulder City Police Department
  • The Clark County School District Police Department
  • The White Pine County Sheriff's Office
  • The Reno Police Department
  • The Mesquite Police Department
  • The Elko Police Department
  • The Washoe County Sheriff's Office
  • The Nevada Traffic Safety Resource Prosecutor
