  • How supervisors should approach a driver who may be impaired, and techniques that can help ease a difficult situation
  • Documenting observed behavior, and the requirements for doing so
  • What happens after the driver is tested
  • The warning signs of alcohol misuse and drug abuse, and what supervisors should look for when determining reasonable suspicion
  • The effects of alcohol and drugs on the body
