How do they actually measure that? THC can stay in your system for quite some time even after the effects have worn off.In the US they are finding the number of car crashes involving stoned people has doubled since decriminalising. So you'd hope there was a crackdown to stop it happening here.
That's fine if the road is 25km/h. It gets progressively more dangerous the higher the speed limit.Yeah, how much damage can you do going at 25 kmh?

Or are you referring to the drug test showing up a metabolite of THC that is being treated as though they are the same thing?
I was clearly being facetiousThat's fine if the road is 25km/h. It gets progressively more dangerous the higher the speed limit.
The latter. The testing doesn't test for effect, merely presence.If it's in your system can you demonstrate that it isn't having an effect?

The onus is on the state to prove otherwise.

If there was a way to test for effect, even if it was some arbitrary measure akin to the BAL for alcohol, there might be a way to make the testing fairer.

Refer to snake's link above. It contains some of the information you may find interesting and be seeking for with the mooted experiment.After two minutes of thought on this I have designed an experiment.

We will take a random selection of 1000 citizens, this will feature a cross section of all ages, drug experiences and both genders, size etc.
Then we have them sit a cognitive response test, where they tap the lights when they turn on. Like a fancy whack a croc game at timezone.
They will then be administered either a placebo pill or a THC pill. A small dose equivalent to a standard suck of a joint. Their breathe/saliva is tested.
They retake the test. Again, another sample tested. Then again in ten minutes. Another sample tested.
They then are given another dose and the process repeated. This can go on for as many repeats as required.
Then over the next five to six hours the saliva tests and cognitive tests are repeated.
We will then be able to chart non distracted perception and reaction over time compared to a control group.
I'd like to do this test with morning groups, lunch groups, evening groups and night groups and compare results.
Secretly I'd also be measuring fatigue in the placebo groups.

There really is. But we need a simple and lowest common denominator standard for the law to base off.
The rest of driving is based around that, so will this.
So is alcohol and driving though.We don't need anything.
The correlation between general cannabis use and driving is complete garbage.

That's pretty scary, taking a vitamin B supplement putting you at risk. Most 'executive b' OTC supps are full of B2False positives for cannabis: Ibuprofen, Naproxen, Ketoprofen, Promethazine, Pantoprazole, Riboflavin, as well as Baby Soaps and Shampoos.

A new curve-ball enters the game:

More reason to test level rather than presence.
Didn't you read the bit about vitamin B2 and Ibuprofen?
Or are you suggesting the state should randomly pluck people out of motor vehicles and plunge syringes in their arms?
If 97% of lab testing confirmed THC I wonder how widespread this B2 and Nurofen false positive issue is.
Or is it really dope smokers looking for ways to get away with driving while stoned.
