There's even a pre-prepared email for you to edit and send.

Don't admit to any potential crimes if you do!

Drive

Thousands of people in NSW have legal prescriptions for medicinal cannabis but are banned from driving at all times, no matter how safe or unimpaired they are. If this is you, will you email your MP and ask them to fix this?

Geez, I got some weird angry completely failed to comprehend replies to that, from a wally on mastodon.social (surprise!). I shouldn't have politely tried to explain the laws in this country (not theirs)—I think they read my reply as supporting the law I'm complaining about.🤦 Another weird reply on an unrelated toot.

Then I think they blocked me. The account exists, but I can't see any of their many posts, nor reply to those to me. Oh well. I blocked them to be sure. Life's too short 🤷

@thefathippy I hope that's your dopey bastard quota for the month.

@thefathippy It was a very weird response: “you’ve got a vendetta…” It’s clear that you are not writing to support such laws. 🤷🏼‍♂️

You can't get a DUI even with traces of THC in your system.

It's just not possible, they don't have official studies to base any intoxication off of. Simple as that. They tried but its illegal to charge someone for their medicine or religious rituals.

Like imagine claiming that any cow meat in your blood stream puts you at risk of getting a DUI.

Did you drink a coffee or energy drink today?

Bitch you're under the influence of coffee!!!
Zero tolerance state, straight to jail.

The only thing they can do a blood test for while driving is Blood Alcohol Content.

That's it.

You can't get a DUI for THC and you also can't force a victim to under duress sign any per se admin affidavit or paperwork to recieve a DUI in a collision they are not at fault in. Particularly after having made them afraid for their life or the life and safety of their child if they don't sign.

It's a felony form of misconduct under color of law.
It's excessive force.
And it's fraud.

As you mentioned felonies, I'll guess you're not from NSW (Australia). We have limited legal grounds for blood tests (in a hospital) for listed drugs. No force.

But this is about random roadside saliva testing. Blood tests may come later. I don't know.

If you drive with traces of THC in your saliva, you have committed an offence, regardless of whether or not you are in any way impaired. Potentially, this could be weeks after you last took your legal medication.

If you drive with traces of alcohol in your system, no worries, up to 0.05 BAC. I don't drink much & definitely feel it before then, but I could wobble out the pub door & be sweet.

IMO, this law is a farce, because it punishes people who aren't doing anything wrong. Unless they're driving high... that's wrong & I don't support it. That's not what's tested. They deny it, but the law's really there to punish illegal users, now it's medically legal, the law doesn't work.

That's your problem. Alcohol is one of the most deadly drugs known to humans.

But you've got a vendetta against a plant, not even a processed plant, lmfao, just a plant.

Dumbest shit I'll ever see.

@thefathippy it's sooooo weird how you guys want to compare weed and alcohol, but NEVER alcohol and street drugs or tobacco. Lmfao.

It's also hilarious that you want to compare weed to deadly substances, in general.

Just absolutely hysterically funny.
