Flawed Marijuana-Impaired DUI Testing Means Wrongful Prosecutions and Lax Enforcement

January 19, 2020 | FlaglerLive | 7 Comments

DUI checkpoints can rely on relatively effective breath tests to check for alcohol-impaired drivers, but law enforcement has no equivalent to reliably test for marijuana impairment.

DUI-testing for marijuana impairment is inaccurate, easily disputed and defeated. The result is uneven prosecution. Innocent drivers are being wrongly convicted. Impaired drivers are remaining undetected, posing a potential safety risk to everyone on the road.

It is prosecuted by Assistant State Attorney Jason Lewis and Assistant State Attorney Tammy Jaques, right, and defensed by Junior Barrett (standing with the lawyers, closest to the camera).
