AB Without a doubt, driving with the presenceof drugs in the body is a real problem associatedwith a higher risk of being involvedin road traffic collisions. Thus, interventionaimed at preventing drug driving is a top priority (Álvarez& González-Luque, 2010; DRUID, 2012; Schulze et al.,2012).In this article, we use the concept injuries due to road trafficcollisions and not the inadequate term, traffic accidents. Mostinjuries resulting from road traffic collisions are preventable(Álvarez, 2005; Redelmeier & McLellan, 2013), hence theaim of this article: making professionals aware of the factthat these injuries are avoidable, particularly professionalswho treat patients for any Substance Use Disorder (SUD),and that they can and should intervene in the preventionof injuries due to road traffic collisions. Like the slogan ofthe 2004 World Health Day: “Road safety is no accident”
