Comments
“Since Michigan legalized marijuana, I continue to hear from local law enforcement about the danger impaired drivers are causing on our roads and the difficulty police and prosecutors have to hold intoxicated drivers accountable. Unlike a breathalyzer test for alcohol – which are accurate to 0.001% – common tests used by law enforcement to determine marijuana impairment are only accurate about 2/3rds of the time making it difficult to hold these reckless individuals accountable and our roads safe.” (4/4/22)
