HOPE Y'ALL AGREE
45 years ago in House of Commons Committee
I asked a question concerning the ability of
determining pot smoking impairment
The answer? "No clear means."

Concern remains the same now as then
for me - control of those choosing to be
threats to others for personal pleasure.

IS IT OKAY TO SMOKE POT AND DRIVE?
https://www.cbc.ca/firsthand/m_features/duid-marijuana

We all know that it's not okay to drink and drive, but what about smoking pot and driving?

While driving under the influence of marijuana isn't as bad as alcohol, studies have shown that smoking weed can affect spatial perception. Drugged drivers may have slower reaction times and can swerve or tailgate more often which makes them a much higher risk for accidents.

In most developed countries like Canada,drug-impaired driving is on the rise, particularly among young teenaged drivers, who are twice as likely to drive after smoking pot as they are after drinking.



New drugged driving laws in Colorado
Months before the commercial sale of recreational marijuana was legalized, the state of Colorado passed a law that made driving under the influence of pot illegal.

Any driver found with more than five nanograms of THC, the psychoactive ingredient of marijauana, per millilitre of blood could be charged with a DUI. 
Watch a Colorado public service announcement about the new marijuana laws.

To enforce that law, Colorado trained officers to look for signs of marijuana use on the road; distracted driving, light body tremors,  different sized pupils, impaired motor skills and the smell of marijuana in the vehicle.
