Much has been discussed about the prosecution and defense in DWI cases. With the advent of the legalization of marijuana more people are driving under the influence of marijuana which is the number one drug used with alcohol while driving at about 27% of time. This is not your mother’s marijuana nor is it a garden variety DWI case. Marijuana and driving cases raise new issues related to all aspects of driving under the influence cases.

Part 1 of this CLE presentation traverses you through facts about marijuana use and potency, identifies the current status of marijuana driving laws across the country, and discusses how marijuana use impacts the brain and driving.
