I take a dose of over 500mg’s of opiates per day. I’m not currently driving, but that also isn’t why. There was no doctor telling me not to drive at the time I stopped(when my prescription still topped 1000mg per day.)
Sure, they’ve had years to research opiates(kinda makes you wonder why they’re only suddenly dropping all of this “new information” on how dangerous they are now that they’ve caused a crisis that could kill 25% of us,) but the bottom line is that they know that once someone has been on a dose of opiates for a long enough amount of time, it stops getting them “high,” and becomes their new “normal.”
I’m sure they will come to similar conclusions with cannabis, and now that they have a need, I wouldn’t expect a cannabis specific blood test that is able to shed a much more accurate light on an individuals use patterns to be much farther behind.
In Oregon, you’re submitting to a blood test for DUI by getting behind the wheel of a vehicle. This has long been the law here, and now that we have legal cannabis, I understand that it’s something that they’re looking for, and a risk I’m taking if I get behind the wheel.
