To redefine the standard by which a person is deemed to be driving while intoxicated by marijuana. A recent Supreme Court case determined that under the current legal definition, a person who has residual byproducts of past marijuana use in their body is deemed to be intoxicated, even though these byproducts are weeks or months old, and the subject would not be considered by objective standards to be actually impaired. The bill would create a new legal standard that more accurately reflects whether a person is actually impaired.
Referred to the Committee on Transportation
