If the Laconia Police are situated outside the clinic will they be administering DUI testing before people get back on the road?
Not being a Laconia resident I have no preference as to yea or nay on this clinic. However because the drug problem is so bad everywhere this situation could arise in my town or anywhere else. I appreciate the information provided here, so that before a clinic is built down the street from my home or office I'll have some insight into the pros and cons.

I realize that there has been alot of information posted on this thread, but I was wondering if my question regarding the capabilities of someone getting a methadone dose could be answered? Does anyone know whether a person receiving a dose at a clinic is capable of driving without being a candidate for DUI?
