The standard is going to be the same as the objective signs of intoxication relied on by the Commonwealth in a DWI prosecution where there is no breath or blood test admissible.

“The standard is going to be the same as the objective signs of intoxication relied on by the Commonwealth in a DWI prosecution where there is no breath or blood test admissible.”

That makes sense. There are many things besides alcohol (like prescription drugs, legally or illegally used) that would impair people’s driving. Also cases where testing is refused, or results get disallowed.

What do you think about mewzilla’s point about “the difficulties and costs associated with getting pothead drivers off the roads”?

Does marijuana legalization present particular practical DUI challenges to Law Enforcement?
