I am concerned that this will be significantly challenged in the courts. The taking of illicit drugs is obviously prohibited by law. However, the legislation is about preventing accidents on the roads. For somebody who may have taken cannabis yesterday, if there are traces in their bloodstream today, they could find themselves in trouble.
