The DWI Detection and Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) Training curriculum prepares police officers and other qualified persons to conduct the SFSTs for use in driving while impaired (DWI) investigations. This training, developed under the auspices and direction of NHTSA and IACP, has experienced remarkable success since its inception in the early 1980s.
As in any educational training program, an instructor guide is considered a “living document” that is subject to updates and changes based on advances in technology and science. A thorough review is made of information by the IACP Technical Advisory Panel (TAP) with contributions from sources in health care science, toxicology, jurisprudence, optometry, and law enforcement. Based on this information, any appropriate revisions and modifications in background theory, facts, examination, and decision-making methods are made to improve the quality of the instruction as well as the standardization of guidelines for the implementation of the SFST curriculum.
