Exactly what I'm wondering. Maybe this process goes like this:

Cop (looking at kid who looks like he/she has had fun at some point in the day/night): "Are you high on _________?"

Kid (being honest): "Yes, I just toked a huge fucking chocolate blunt packed with the white widow!!!eleventyeone!!"

Cop: "zomgwtfbbq come with us, please."

Don't know if they are using them yet but last I knew they were developing flashlights that can detect THC. I know they already have ones that can detect alcohol.

Wow. Maybe with an effective roadside sobriety test for THC, we can finally move towards legalizing and regulating here in the States. God knows it's far less dangerous that alcohol! I'll take the stoned driver over the drunk driver any day of the week. Of course sober trumps all, though.

I've never heard of them being used in this way but there are oral fluid drug tests that give instant results.

It would be interesting to see how these types of tests would hold up in court. If you are charged with DWI and they use anything but a blood test a decent lawyer should be able to get the charge thrown out. The charge is Driving WHILE Intoxicated and urine/hair/saliva tests check for drug metabolites which is an indication of PRIOR usage.

I would guess they would have to use the saliva test to show probable cause to bring you in for a blood test. But even then how do they prove you are intoxicated. For alcohol its easy, its your BAC. But to my knowledge there are no laws that indicate how much coke, meth, E, or whatever has to be in your system to make you intoxicated.
