The Nevada Department of Transportation released figures showing the number of crashes involving drivers under the influence of drugs has increased from 97 in 1995 to 163 in 1997. Ben Graham of the Clark County district attorney's office said the law would work in the same way as they do for drunken drivers. Drivers caught with drugs in their system would be breaking the law, even if there wasn't proof they were impaired. From a practical standpoint, there'd have to be probable cause before any one was arrested,'' he said. I do NOT think this law is fair.
People have a right to do what they want on their free time.
You would be taking that right away. Drugs do stay in the system for a longer amount of time than it initially affects the person. If an accident did occur due to the intoxication of an illegal substance or prescription, they do pay the price if they commit a crime. Bill Clinton would have went to jail for his one puff os marijuana smoke, but now he is our president. Pretty soon we will have laws to tell us how to walk or talk a certian way because somebody decides it is good for us.
