I read that article and it mentions a fata crash off the highway in August where the driver had 40 times the legal limit of THC in his system. yikes. Reminds me of decades back when I lived in NY the state police apprehended a driver going well above 100 mph and with a blood alcohol level that in most cases is fatal. but 40x the legal limit of THC , difficult to believe.

I guess that explains why he walked away from that wreck.

read up on testing for THC and it seems there is no truly accurate way from blood testing to determine how high a driver might be, the test identifies certain chemical elements that can be in a chronic user's system for a long time, nevertheless studies of fatal accidents (that crash in Aug had fatalities) show of high % of drivers tested positive for THC.

The one that had the 40x THC died in the earlier wreck where two people died and a young girl was hospitalized.
