(Officers trained in the ADT Program, by no means, will replace officers trained in the Drug Recognition Evaluator (DRE) Program. Officers trained in the ADT Program will be able to develop the probable cause to arrest individuals who are under the influence of a drug. A drug recognition evaluation should be done after the arrest by a IACP certified DRE. In the event a DRE is not available, the ADT trained officer should complete the arrest and report utilizing their skills, training, and experience.)
