Marijuana laws: Lawmaker takes drug test to prove Pennsylvania DUI laws unfair

Marijuana laws are evolving and vary from state to state, especially when it comes to DUI enforcement.

In Pennsylvania and Delaware, the DUI laws are called “zero tolerance,” meaning you could get charged with DUI with any amount of cannabis in your system whether impaired or not.

    Government going to make money,,, ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    This cop is spewing propaganda. Law enforcement has bias and self interest in keeping cannabis illegal as cannabis arrests and enforcement are job security for these agencies.

    Weed to sleep? Just use melatonin



  4. @TJ45223 on March 8, 2024 at 3:47 am

    If I paid the fee, saw a doctor to be approved to buy medical marijuana in PA how can I then be charged with a DWI bc itโ€™s in my system. A lot of people being charged with DUI / DWI are mmj patients even if you didnโ€™t use for 12+ hours you can still be charged. How goofy is that



  5. @Stay_Medicated_Pa on March 8, 2024 at 3:49 am

    Such bullshit…24 hrs later and it’s still active ? Bullshit. 4 hours tops…



  6. @andrewholloway517 on March 8, 2024 at 3:50 am

    Same old bull from the police a corporal tell you he’s an expert on THC yeah right where his doctors degree in chemistry .๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜…



  7. @jasonflores9519 on March 8, 2024 at 3:52 am

    The nerve of that state trooper you can smoke and 24 hours still being impaired is the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard its cops and people like him is why the law is the way it is SMH



  8. @stevensims3342 on March 8, 2024 at 3:53 am

    Ridiculous. You could go to the liquor store and buy $1000 worth of booze but no stigmajuana!!



  9. @sdmc1972 on March 8, 2024 at 3:53 am

    Lol so serious



  12. @stephenziemianski9059 on March 8, 2024 at 3:56 am

    I love how they basically didnโ€™t need any proof for thc like they gave out so many duis. And itโ€™s so sad that they literally have to have lawyers tell you if you even show a police officer your card itโ€™s an automatic dui because they know they donโ€™t have to prove it and they just want to ruin peoples life. They gave someone I knew one and they werenโ€™t actively high but a card was in the car and they tried to give one to every person . Thatโ€™s really fair yep no proof needed to ruins someoneโ€™s life thanks government



  13. @bleu999 on March 8, 2024 at 3:58 am

    Proof of impairment is key.

    Cannabis testing for DWI is a joke… and the most unfair test out there!



  17. @fuckyoueveryday on March 8, 2024 at 4:03 am

    This cop has never done marijuana

    Legalise cannabis in the UK.



  20. @user-om9yf4kp4l on March 8, 2024 at 4:06 am

    Itโ€™s an infringement on private people.
    The law has to do with corporations in commerce .
    Theyโ€™re making you the corporations in commerce, instead of allowing you to be private men and women with standing .



  21. @209_gardens7 on March 8, 2024 at 4:07 am

    The police are a joke



  22. @mattb2690ify on March 8, 2024 at 4:08 am

    This is just another case of cannabis boogie being a bogeyman it doesnโ€™t impair you like alcohol does you never get as impaired on cannabis as you can on alcohol.



  23. @jannisbarriffe8534 on March 8, 2024 at 4:09 am

    Shameful. Politicians promoting drugs!!!

  25. @ronaldboyer5820 on March 8, 2024 at 4:10 am

    If anyone out here is smoking weed and still high after 24 hrs, u gotta hook me up.



  26. @joserayo491 on March 8, 2024 at 4:13 am

    That cops a fuckin clown



  27. @lukemei5ter on March 8, 2024 at 4:13 am

    What do these cops know about weed an driving. They are too busy drinking and driving. Some people smoke cannabis regularly. An drive 12 to 16hrs a day everyday for the last 15 yrs. They keep it under wraps an respect the roads an laws. Whats wrong here is the police just want to feel powerful an make you lose your job get left by your family an wife all because you smoked some weed for anxiety. They want you to lose your home an get stuck in the streets. It helps them not have to lock you up your already miserable an they don’t spend a dime. Th as t way u can get hooked on meth or crack an they can tie u up chain you up hurt your for hrs by 5 men an assault you an threaten your hearts life by pointing guns at you everymorning for sleeping in a car with no locked doors to keep you safe. Police will harras you an wait for you to go to sleep so they can surround you an sneak up. They steal your hard-earned money an life from you so they can play hero an have a gun an uniform on. You have to help people in order to be a real police officer. Not harass hardworking people for a tangy smell like you’d get from a cigarette anyway. Its prejudice.



  28. @johnambrose5311 on March 8, 2024 at 4:20 am

    33hrs before getting labeled impaired .01 ng 17 months DL suspension n 27 months having to have a interlock device n I have COPD so 27 months no means of transportation n 3 days in jail racist



  29. @Obi-Wan-Kenobi420 on March 8, 2024 at 4:23 am

    idk what these cops smoking but weeds that keeps u high 24 hours yes please



  30. @BRIANDER100 on March 8, 2024 at 4:24 am

    What about THC gummies ?



  31. @wainewizanthony7420 on March 8, 2024 at 4:24 am

    Zero tolerance? Not in Philly. They all go free.



  32. @lukemei5ter on March 8, 2024 at 4:25 am

    Without cannabis drivers, we would have 6 times more drunk ones.



  33. @Joey-vw1id on March 8, 2024 at 4:26 am

    Yeah but if you get pulled over and asked to take a test to provide proof of impairment it really won’t matter because how are they going to be able to know if you consumed cannabis an hour ago or thirty days ago?
    Cannabis is not like alcohol which leaves the body within hours, When you consume cannabis it will be visible by blood or urine test for up to thirty days. I don’t understand how the officers can make a positive determination..



  34. @chadsmith7075 on March 8, 2024 at 4:27 am

    what do you want a cookie? Should be mandatory



  35. @andrewheavenridge7955 on March 8, 2024 at 4:27 am

    Of course police are going to push the narrative that you aren’t safe to drive while high on marijuana, it gives them all the leniency they’ve always had to raid your vehicle and potentially steal your cash and belongings.



  36. @cartisbunny on March 8, 2024 at 4:28 am

    they are very right & i bet if they legalized recreational use everyone would pass a DUI.



  37. @ellamaeloftus3493 on March 8, 2024 at 4:30 am

    Tell that to someone who has lost a child or loved one to someone impaired while driving.



  38. @nathanboone5168 on March 8, 2024 at 4:30 am

    They still feel the effects for 24 hours. This dude has never smoke weed in his life and is a moron. Driving under the legal bac will have you driving worse than 2 dabs and after about 6-9 hours the effects are negligible.



  39. @darkone292 on March 8, 2024 at 4:31 am

    I want to punch that cop in the face that said youโ€™re impaired after 24 hours.



  40. @beans64847 on March 8, 2024 at 4:32 am

    Unfair until somebody he cares about get killed by somebody who has been smoking marijuana come on stupid liberal



  41. @streetwork5069 on March 8, 2024 at 4:34 am

    You can stop smoking pot for six to eight months and still tests positive.



  42. @whiteowl8703 on March 8, 2024 at 4:34 am

    If you canโ€™t detect someone is intoxicated then leave them the fuck alone.



  43. @gt-gu7rb on March 8, 2024 at 4:36 am

    Driving while sleepy, driving on prescription medications, talking on a cell phone. Even the blood alcohol level varies from state to state. There are several issues that can lead to hazardous driving. The entire issue is hazy.



  44. @JohnDoe-wy7py on March 8, 2024 at 4:36 am

    I once took LSD to prove a point

    The trees were delicious



  45. @john4148 on March 8, 2024 at 4:37 am

    All across the united states from one end to the other, the lawless enforcement officers will lay dead in the streets when the fury of the Apocalypse arrives. The birds and wildlife will pick their bones and they will become dung on the ground. This will happen soon.



  46. @soniaramirez303 on March 8, 2024 at 4:38 am

    Don’t take drugs period!!! There are many other ways to sleep like chamomile tea, or exercise, etc.



  47. @geewizwiz3 on March 8, 2024 at 4:41 am

    I think there is a difference taking it internally and smoking it. Also how soon you consumed it and how much you take.



  48. @Marktheshark804 on March 8, 2024 at 4:43 am

    Bs… Most medical Marijuana is like smoking a cigarette, it doesn’t impair you like the way alcohol does. I guess I’m immune to it by now.

  50. @POWER-LINKS on March 8, 2024 at 4:43 am

    There is now VALID scientific evidence that "pre-employment drug screens and cannabis related DUI’s" are not able to determine whether someone is "under the Influence of THC." This has now been officially established by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration). The info comes from an official FAA toxicology report: "A small plane crash (post-maintenance flight with pilot and mechanic on board) in Florida on Oct. 31, 2019 found that THC was discovered in the 73 year old pilot’s blood, along with valium and blood pressure medicine. However, THC is rapidly metabolized, with the rate of metabolism not being linear and depends on the means of ingestion (smoking, oils, edibles), potency of the product, frequency of use, and user’s personal characteristics. THC is fat soluble and stored in fatty tissues where it can be released into the system long after consumption. While the psychoactive effects may only last a few hours, THC metabolites can be detected in urine and blood for weeks after consumption. Thus, STANDARD URINE DRUG SCREENS or BLOOD LEVEL test results DO NOT reflect recent use and CAN NOT be used as proof that the user was UNDER THE INFLUENCE of THC". This well known scientific fact has now been OFFICIALLY verified by a U.S. government organization, but states that have legalized medicinal or recreational marijuana are still using urine screening and blood testing to deny employment and issue DUI’s, even though it does not reflect any level of intoxication, accurately OR legally.
