2. Preview 1. The problem and its relevance. 2. Our solution 3. How it works today. 4. Benefits.

3. Transportation: Accidents From Impairment Substance Abuse Alcohol was the most prevalent drug, found in 52% of vehicle accidents. Alcohol, marijuana, heroin, cocaine and amphetamines are responsible for most trucking accidents. Fatigue / sleep-deprivation Fatigue contributes to numerous accidents.

4. Transportation: Statistics Of randomly tested interstate tractor-trailer drivers: 15% had marijuana in their system Of all stopped reckless drivers w/o alcohol in their system: 45% had marijuana in their system (*) 25% had cocaine in their system Truck accidents: 30% caused by driver fatigue 13% of fatal accidents caused by drivers using marijuana. 12% had non-prescription stimulants (*) 3x marijuana detection in drivers prescreened for recklessness

5. Transportation: Liability In 2006, a Swift Transportation driver on meth was involved in a highway wreck with a Yellow Freight truck: $23.5 million verdict for one YF employee who suffered catastrophic spinal cord injury. A wrongful death trial is still pending for the other YF employee.

6. Transportation: “Direct Observation Rule” In May 2009, a court decision supported the US DOT requirement for transportation industry employers to implement the Direct Observation Rule for Return-to-Duty and Follow-up testing 73 Fed. Reg. 62,910, 62,918 Adulteration of urine samples collected for drug and alcohol screening has significantly increased among workers. Employees who elect not to participate in drug & alcohol screening shall be treated as a positive test and required to demonstrate that they are drug free before returning to work. √ ESP will help employers by providing solid, quantifiable, reasonable-suspicion indicators.

7. Substance Abuse Testing Exceeding minimum federal requirements is always beneficial. –Current testing procedures are invasive, slow and costly. –Testing can easily cost $100 per test. Employers struggle with reasonable cause for conducting targeted drug tests. –A reasonable-suspicion test could result in litigation. –Now “Direct Observation” is required. –Often supervisors “look the other way.” Laura Ruhl Genson, Anita Kerezman (Eds.) (2006). Truck accident litigation (2 nd Edition). ISBN:1-59031-760-2 Page 231. “In Defense of a Claim by an Employee”

8. Meth and Movement Last meth use <60 days (n=3) Last meth use >60 days (n=6) (F(1,28)=41, p<0.000001) Each writing pattern shows a difference

9. ESP Implementation ESP works in 3 Steps: Identify  Write  Result Can be deployed on an existing PC by adding a tablet. Can be deployed on a variety of portable devices.

10. Example User Interface 1. Enter your name: 2. Write the following with the pen: eeeleeel 3. Test result: Problem detected! (Results saved. Supervisor notified. Employee notified.) John Smith

11. Demonstration of ESP We are using an off-the-shelf digitizing tablet and our computer. Using MovAlyzeR ®, our general-purpose, patent-pending, handwriting analysis system. The test can be completed within one minute.

12. 1. Identify yourself. Select your ID with the pen.

13. 2. Read instructions A few simple handwriting patterns.

14. ... and write.... and write. Perform each pattern as instructed.

15. 3. Results Instant results for instant decisions.

16. Example Results Example Results Days 1-4 are OK... *Simulated data.... change is evident on Day 5.
