No one, especially TRUCE, wants to see patients driving while impaired by cannabis. But we also don’t want to see people arrested for DUI when they used their medical cannabis yesterday. Current blood tests used in Utah can result in a guilty verdict, even though the patient used cannabis hours or days before the arrest.
Two companies have developed field test devices for under $1000 each. The machine tests for THC in exhaled breath, detecting cannabis use within only the past 3 hours. That’s a much more accurate test than current blood tests, that result in the arrest of cannabis patients who may have used their medicine 3 days ago.
