Cannabis and Driving?

Combining cannabis with alcohol significantly decreases your ability to drive safely. It does NOT make driving safer or lessen the effects of alcohol. Legal use of medical cannabis can lead to a DUI.

  • Driving under the influence of cannabis is illegal.
  • Drug-impaired driving has the same penalties as alcohol-impaired driving.
  • People who use cannabis cannot be considered “designated drivers” even if they are abstaining from alcohol.
  • The effects of edibles are unpredictable making it difficult to determine if you can operate a vehicle safely.
