Legalize Meth and the other drugs. Then that won’t be a crime, only an incident./SARC

“Blood tests showed Barson had nine times an allowable amount of methamphetamine in his system, Bauman said.”

Just wondering what the ALLOWABLE amount is.

Initial discussion days ago:

Initial news report:
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/5-dead-after-truck-runs-into-group-of-bicyclists-near-las-vegas/ar-BB1bPgN1?
[The uninjured truck driver remained on the scene, cooperated with investigators, and impairment does not appear to be an issue, officials said.]

Ahh... one doesn’t fall asleep with that amount of meth in your system. He might of thought the bicyclists were shadow people.

During my years of drug counseling I’d ask each the meth users how many days or longest they would’ve stayed awake before crashing. The most extreme cases were 29 days without sleeping the longest was 32 days.

"Choices have consequences," Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said.

Agreed. A bunch of idiots made the choice to ride their bicycles on a highway. Too bad they were killed but smarter decisions about where to go cycling could have saved their lives.

Just another reason for me as an old bicyclist to stay on bike trails and low speed neighborhood roads. If the drivers are going above 40mph I don’t won’t to share the road with them. They do seem to be even crazier lately too.

They can get a result for blood alcohol content on the spot. Not so with drugs, even though the introduction of such instant drug tests have been announced for a decade or more.

Organizations continue the successful push to make drug testing effectively difficult or impossible as a legal tool. Most police are afraid of enforcing drug abuse laws, and that’s in the states that haven’t legalized drug abuse. People who do drugs will continue to be a deadly threat on the roads and everywhere.
