September 24, 2025

Ever wondered how law enforcement officers learn to detect drug-impaired drivers? The latest episode of the Driving Change podcast takes you deep into the world of wet and green labs—the hands-on training environments where science meets safety.

Our guest, Kyle Clark, has over 37 years of experience in traffic safety and impaired driving enforcement. From his early days with the City of Naples Police Department to his current role as Senior Program Manager at the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), Kyle has shaped national standards for SFST, ARIDE, and DRE training.

In this episode, Kyle shares:

  • How wet and green labs are set up and why they’re essential for effective training
  • The safety protocols that protect both officers and volunteers
  • The unexpected camaraderie and learning that emerge in these unique environments

Whether you’re in law enforcement, public safety, or just curious about how impaired driving detection works, this episode offers a rare glimpse into the real-world training that saves lives.
