Oregon’s Impaired Driving Prevention Program Assessment - February 3 - 4, 2026
The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), in partnership with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), is completing a comprehensive assessment of Oregon’s Impaired Driving Prevention Program. This assessment aims to identify challenges and opportunities to strengthen efforts to reduce alcohol- and drug-impaired driving and the resulting crashes, injuries, and fatalities on Oregon highways.
A team of national subject matter experts has been evaluating Oregon’s impaired driving prevention systems since fall 2025. Their work will conclude with a series of panel interviews with Oregon stakeholders on February 3 and 4.
Open to the Public (No public comment opportunities will be provided.)

NOTE:
Thank you all for your patience throughout the staffing transitions for the Executive Support role at TSO. We have now created an email profile that is accessible by several team members, and we will be able to add new hires as they come on, so no individual will own these meetings. Invitations will now come from that profile, which will eliminate the need for cancelling and resending items when these transitions take place in the future. Please accept our apologies in advance for the final wave of cancellations and new invitations.
