“After approval by the State Senate and House, a bill that bans ‘drugged driving’ is set to become law in Ohio, RAW STORY has found. Activists groups that focus on the decriminalization of marijuana are outraged that the almost-certain-to-become law will also target individuals found with trace amounts of tetra-hydro cannabinol or THC — the active ingredient in the drug — still in their system, even if they weren’t ‘drugged’ at the time. Marijuana can remain in a user’s system for up to weeks afterward. According to the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Law (NORML), Ohio will soon be joining Nevada and Indiana as ‘zero tolerance’ states that handout DUIDs (driving under the influence of drugs) to motorists for detectable trace amounts of THC.” (03/31/06)
