There was a bill presented last Tuesday, March 22, stating tighter restrictions on people in Colorado who drive under the influence of marijuana.
The approval of the entire House of Representative did not come easy, as there were two bill sponsors who had little fight about it.
The marijuana bill, House Bill 1261, would create an amount limit of THC. THC is the active substance in marijuana and Bill 1262 proposed that drivers could contain a certain amount in their blood. Anyone who exceeds the limit of 5 nanograms per millimeter is assumed to be too high to drive; similar to those who have above 0.08 percent of blood-alcohol content are considered too drunk to drive.
The law enforcement officials support the bill and said it is specific to those existing laws which bans stoned driving. This bill revision proposal was opposed by many medical marijuana communities. They say that the maximum THC limit is too low for people with high THC tolerance.
