And then there is this . . .

THERE’S NO STANDARDIZED TEST TO DETECT HIGH DRIVERS

(01/07/20)INN

Law enforcement is struggling with the issue of how to best detect and prevent drivers from getting behind the wheel high.

Executive Director of the Illinois Sheriff’s Association Jim Kaitschuk says there are complications for tracking people who drive under the influence of marijuana. Kaitschuk says there is no standardized test to detect high drivers.

Kaitschuk says there is no standardized test to detect high drivers.

So give them the old roadside tests: walk a straight line, etc. It may not be enough for a conviction, but it will get them off the road that night.

Also, people who before legalization didn't use marijuana because it was illegal, will after legalization not drive stoned because that remains illegal - so legalization won't substantially increase DUI.

Look for the drivers waiting for the stop sign to turn green...
