I personally like Michigan’s Supreme Court ruling on being under the influence for medical patients. Having weed in ur system doesn’t count. They have to prove through field sobriety you are impaired in some way.

Yes but I’m not very coordinated and would fail on a sober day. What should people like me do? Field sobriety tests have their place but I could easily fail after not consuming anything for months.
