No, but someone impaired can get behind the wheel and do it. And what makes pot a big problem is that there’s no scientific consensus on a base blood level of THC that can prove impairment. So prosecuting drivers is very problematic.

States are free to pass zero-BAC-THC-tolerance laws.

Reckless driving is reckless driving, regardless of the cause.
