English term or phrase: driving while impaired
Context (from a human resources policy on driving company vehicles, what can result in termination of employment):

Driving while impaired, under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs, or refusing a sobriety test.

ALC has "〜障害”for 2-word combinations starting with "impaired", but that isn't exactly right in this case...

Thanks for your help in advance.
