This state has a zero tolerance per se drugged driving law enacted. In
their strictest form, these laws forbid drivers from operating a motor vehicle if they have any detectable level of an illicit drug or drug metabolite

For more information, see NORML's Drugged Driving (DUID) report.

This law mandates that those who possess marijuana are legally required to purchase and affix state-issued stamps
