This is not the equivalent of an alcohol breathalyzer, it is a tool designed to enable police to target literally any person they want.
Driving High: Is the test for weed reliable? - The Fifth Estate
The status quo for impairment testing is an absolute abomination of our rights and totally unsubstantiated by quality empirical evidence. Just wait until all they have to do is pop something into your mouth, they wait for a beep, and off to jail you go.
This is not about removing impaired drivers from the roads, these tests do not test for impairment, they merely test for the presence of THC.
@zastels, I have found only one cannabis breathalyzer stock trading on the Canadian exchange, even thou I have spoken to 2 other private companies about their technology. With legalization coming to Canada soo, it will be interesting to see which technology the police eventually use... Hopefully none.
We have random police stops here in Australia, no reasonable suspicion or probable cause required. The tests are mandatory and include mouth swab for drugs. if you refuse, they drag you from the car and you are arrested. There is no recourse for an assault by police here as the office of public integrity is also corrupt. Coming soon to your country too.
