Warm Wishes from our DIVERSITY STAR AMANDA RIEK!

The NCDD "Cannabis and Cars" winter session surpassed my expectations. It allowed me to become familiar with and keep a pulse on the rapidly emerging field of marijuana impaired driving. The presentations were comprehensive, captivating, and cutting edge. It was the perfect blend of legal updates, science (or lack thereof), and inside information about the direction of impaired driving testing, defense, and prosecution. Not to mention all of the friends and colleagues I was able to reconnect with, all of the new members I met, and all in temperatures above zero degrees!

My first winter session was nothing short of inspirational. I left sunny California feeling energized, informed, and proud to call myself a freedom fighter. Although returning to a snow storm was not exciting, I am eager to hit the ground running in the defense of marijuana impaired driving!
