Drug Situation: Geographically, Tennessee is
unique because it is bordered by eight other states.
The interstate and state highway systems crisscross
Tennessee's four major cities and traverse each of its borders. These highways
carry a very large volume of traffic and are a primary means of moving drugs to
and through Tennessee. As a result, the drug situations in the neighboring
states have an impact on the drug situation in Tennessee.
Tennessee is predominantly a "user" and a
transshipment state, and not a major source area for any drug except
domestically grown marijuana. |
