| | | Arizona: You have to Be Impaired by Marijuana to Get a DUI | The Arizona Court of Appeals has ruled that the mere presence of THC in a driver's bloodstream does not constitute grounds for suspending their driver's license unless it can be proven they were impaired while driving. | This decision reinforces the intent of Proposition 207, which voters passed to legalize marijuana, emphasizing that driving after cannabis use, without active impairment, should not be penalized. The case in question involved an individual named Kirsten, who had THC metabolites in his system but was not shown to be impaired by marijuana, leading to the court's decision to uphold his driving privileges. | This ruling marks a significant shift in how DUI related to marijuana is approached in Arizona, aligning more closely with the treatment of alcohol impairment where active intoxication must be demonstrated. It underscores the complexity of determining impairment from cannabis use, especially given the long detection window for THC metabolites compared to the active intoxicating effects. | Critics of the previous law argued it was unfairly punitive towards legal marijuana users, and this decision aims to rectify that by focusing on actual impairment rather than mere presence of the substance. | | Advertisement | | | | |
