Houston — Dräger is proud to announce it has become a Corporate Partner with Responsibility.org, the leading voice for conversations on driving sober.
Recently, Responsibility.org established The National Alliance to Stop Impaired Driving (NASID). The purpose of NASID is to provide national leadership in identifying and promoting solutions for impaired driving, including expanded chemical testing, training for criminal justice practitioners, toxicology lab capacity and more. Dräger joined as a “Responsibility Champion,” the highest level offered.
Dräger and Responsibility.org share a commitment to eliminate all forms of impaired driving through scientific chemical testing. NASID is one of the only coalitions of its kind and Dräger and Responsibility.org will work closely with state legislators, officers, and key stakeholders at the state and federal level to advocate for the adoption of oral fluid drug testing as a solution to impaired driving.
“We are pleased to align with Responsibility.org to help combat impaired driving as part of NASID,” said John Wilson, Dräger senior vice president of sales and marketing, safety solutions. “Through our robust alcohol and drug detection technology, Dräger has armed numerous law enforcement departments with the tools necessary to help safeguard our community’s streets. We stand behind our mission to always protect, support and save lives.”
Additionally, in April of this year, Dräger announced its drug testing devices performed well in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Evaluation of On-Site Oral Fluid Screening Devices, including earning top performance results for accuracy and sensitivity.
