Issues: Presently there are technological challenges to drug testing drivers. Approach: An analysis of drug testing results in Queensland with tentative conclusions, including the latest data on comparisons between alcohol and drug testing, types of drugs detected, and post mortem and anti-mortem testing results. Key Findings: Policing for alcohol affected driving and drugged driving are handled differently and there are a range of reasons discussed for that. Implications: There are policing practice and policy implications for this approach. Conclusion: Queensland Police are now some ways down the drugged driving journey however, there are signifi cant difficulties and challenges in the …

All Quaternary dating methods involve the measurement of one or more variables to estimate the age of a sample. Each measured quantity has an associated error and uncertainty, and may also be subject to natural variation. We review the statistical estimation of such uncertainties and variation for comparing and interpreting age estimates, with specific reference to the estimation of equivalent dose (De) values in the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating of sediments. We discuss statistical aspects of OSL signal and background estimation, the determination of De values for multi-grain aliquots and individual mineral grains from the same and different samples, …
