DUI of Marijuana in California

http://www.shouselaw.com/dui-marijuana.html 888.327.4652 Arrested for Marijuana DUI? A California drunk driving lawyer explains the laws, penalties & defenses.

California DUI law makes it illegal to drive under the influence of marijuana--in spite of studies casting doubt on whether marijuana impairs driving ability at all. Moreover, a person who possesses weed at the time of being arrested for DUI marijuana may face two additional charges.

California Vehicle Code 23152(a) VC criminalizes driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. Proving that you're DUI alcohol is definitely the easiest for the prosecution. Proving that you're DUI drugs (DUID) becomes more difficult. Proving that you're DUI marijuana or "dope driving" is perhaps the most challenging.

The primary ingredient in marijuana (also commonly referred to as pot, bud, weed, grass, dope, ganja, and Mary Jane) is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol or "THC". This chemical lingers in the body long after the effects of ingesting marijuana wear off.

no one should operate any machinery impaired, and they should put effort into finding away to test how impaired at them moment a driver who smoked is. also marijuana should be legalized for medical, industrial, and recreation use.enough of this government think they're winning and making a difference when their not shit, also their ignorance is harming the country by the problems their prohibition causes.
