Boulder Weekly, 23 May 2013 – Although I’m generally encouraged about the rules and regulations passed by the Colorado Legislature to regulate marijuana like alcohol this month, the rule that still bothers me allows a jury to infer that someone whose blood level shows five nanograms of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) per milliliter to be impaired or intoxicated. Nobody is arguing that there shouldn’t be some way to determine impairment. Nobody wants intoxicated drivers on the road. The rub is in this particular method. The law-and-order contingency says blood-level tests are necessary tools to help identify intoxicated drivers.
