That’s flawed. Weed stays in your system forever. How far back does it read? What if you smoked the night before
Goes to show…. would rather create and stoke the fires of old, then to even ATTEMPT to combat more important issues in our country.
why she look like that one girl from megamind
Guess I’m not driving anymore lol
I think this is a great thing because now it gives politicians who want to keep it illegal one less excuse or argument for them to say it shouldnt be legal
Garbage statistic doesn’t show people were high and getting in wrecks. Leave it to you morons to ruin a story and lie about stats
“Marijuana is just as dangerous as alcohol”
Achoo🤧
‘Scuse me, must be some bs in the air.
My question is did actual accidents go up or did the people they found with thc in their system go up? Aka they specifically were looking for it
Cop: "there are several indicators for a DUI: Driving too slow or driving too fast" haha so basically just driving? 🤦🏽♂️ hahaha
IS THERE A METH CHECK OR XANAX CHECK /SINCE BOOZE IS DOWN LETS GO AFTER POT ,HOW ABOUT THOSE ON LEGAL MEDS DRIVEING STUPID ,IN MY TOWN 9 OUT OF 10 ARE NOT RIGHT
If you get pulled over you can use the fifth amendment
It’s the right move. As a former smoker every day for 10 years I’m for it. There’s really no other way. It will never be legal federally if there is no way to test for impairment. It’s hard to test impairment for marijuana but this is close enough. Way better than any other kind of test. You shouldn’t risk driving under the influence of anything and if you do you risk getting a dui. This test would allow for people with good jobs to enjoy marijuana too. The only people that can smoke now is bums and people without good paying jobs. I would rather be told I couldn’t drive for three hours after using then not be able to blaze at all. If you got a problem go get your munchies before you smoke or call an Uber. The people complaining about this are the exact reason there is stigma against weed. Some people can drive fine on alcohol or weed but not everyone. I don’t want anyone on the road that is under the influence of anything. If you can’t wait 3 hours after smoking to get in a vehicle then your not a responsible user. This will do for now and maybe the science will catch up and they will have more exact tests in the future. Quit complaining and trying to ruin it for everyone.
Please share this video of Naama’s sister a woman being used as a geopolitical Pawn sentenced to 7.5 yrs prison in Russia for <2 grams of pot Where other similar cases receeived a small fine !!! Thanks @ @
You can tell they’re just reaching. They’re saying these were THC related, but they don’t tell you that a lot of those accidents were also alcohol related first. They just happened to also be smoking weed.
Any public pretender could get one of these dui cases thrown out easily.
Yeah and I’m almost 100%sure it wasnt just thc or marijuana at the time
That cop just said the worst impaired drivers he’s ever pulled over were just from weed. No fricking way. Flat out lies
How many sober people wreck? Just because a person crashes does not mean it because of thc I smoke every day while driving had my Ls for 10 years been driving for 12 while smoking never crashed.
Oh so all I need to do is eat only edibles and not smoke it LOL.
HE LOOKS LIT EXPLAINING THE WEED DEVICE.LOL
a person intoxication of cannabis actually depends on ones tolerance (research it.) we need something else in conjunction with the device
1:22 12 % of them were high 88% were sober which is good to drive when you’re high or sober?
Did it say you breath into it for 2 minutes ? 0:44
But I also don’t want my pilot taking SHOTS or drinking period, I don’t want him doing anything other then FLYING the plane
The word on the street is that Nestle’s Strawberry Quick in high doses is this things kryptonite….
And their on sale this week at
2for$5.99 plus tax @
JACK’S PACKAGE STORE
On the corner of
Mountain and Offcht
Convenient to all Bus Lines and Cracktown…..
I think cell phones should banned completely. Distractive driving due to cell phone use kills way more than anything else.
Still alcohol is worst. Look at the research. Still shouldn’t be doing either one
Under the influence .
Police are bored and just wanna abuse more people
What a load of crap.
What a waste of taxdollars!!
If you can pop a Roxy with a prescription & drive just fine I can drive while smoking a blunt like a cigarette
What about the edibles?
12,000 people drove while high in 2018. Lmao that number is sooooo far off from the truth.
Lies
These are all lies
I’m fine with anybody who smokes pot including police, doctors or even my surgeon .
The real crime here is the turtle neck shirt.
Just another way to make money off of an unsuspecting Citizenry .
NBC, your stats are garbage
It’s your rights to decline taking the breathalyzer test.
There is no way they can prove all if any those accidents in the beginning of the video were caused by weed
65 million dollars…That can fill up a lot of Food Banks.
doesn’t take tolerance into account
Oml this is so stupid sober people crash on accident just as much
What if you chug juice and water right after smoking lol
HE LOOKS LIT EXPLAINING THE WEED DEVICE.LOL
Propaganda. These police are just fighting to maintain too much power.
“Positive for marijuana being in your lungs.”
Ok and? Whats the point of scale to determine whether you’re impaired or not?
That breath test for weed is a lie it’s a scam and should never be admissible in court.
Edibles?
