Michigan driver who uses medical marijuana wins appeal
Category: Medical Marijuana | Posted on Thu, May, 23rd 2013 by THCFinder
LANSING, Mich. (AP) — The Michigan Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that medical marijuana users aren't automatically breaking the law if they're caught driving after using the drug.
The court unanimously overturned an appeals court decision in the case of a Grand Traverse County man, Rodney Koon. He was stopped in 2010 for speeding — going nearly 30 mph over the limit.
Koon admitted having smoked medical marijuana earlier, and a blood test revealed the drug in his system.
It's illegal for Michigan drivers to consume marijuana. But the state high court said medical marijuana users have some protection. The court says police must show that a driver actually was "under the influence" of marijuana for a charge to stick.
Michigan voters approved medical use of marijuana in 2008.
The medical marijuana law "shields registered patients from prosecution for the internal possession of marijuana," the judges said.
At the same time, the law prohibits driving "while under the influence of marijuana." But it fails to specify what level of marijuana in the body constitutes being "under the influence," the opinion said.
The court suggested lawmakers consider setting a marijuana limit, similar to a blood alcohol level.

At about 6:15 p.m., a 39-year-old male Mexican citizen pulled into the the Otay Mesa cargo border crossing driving a tractor-trailer with a shipment of clay pots. The vehicle and shipment were inspected by an officer with a narcotic dog. The dog alerted others to the marijuana.
