To the editor: I’m not towards the leisure use of marijuana, however I voted towards Proposition 64 in 2016, which made marijuana authorized for leisure use in California. I felt that driver impairment by THC, hashish’ predominant psychoactive part, had not been addressed.
Quick ahead to now, and a invoice handed by the state Legislature may pave the best way for hashish cafes, similar to in Amsterdam.
Within the Netherlands, having any degree of THC within the blood whereas driving is against the law. California doesn’t have an identical authorized normal. I perceive there are issues correlating THC blood ranges with precise impairment, and that everybody metabolizes THC in a different way, however we have to set some requirements.
It’s additionally attainable for delicate individuals to really feel a excessive when respiratory secondhand smoke in a setting like that. It additionally appears unlikely that each consumer in a hashish cafe setting will name a cab or rideshare service to go house.
Certainly our legislators see an issue with this. I do.
