ARE YOU TOO HIGH TO DRIVE?

CUMBERLAND COUNTY: Canadian law has changed to catch motorists
suspected of being one toke over the line.

High drivers won't be able to refuse roadside drug tests under new
laws that kicked in last week.

Police can now require drivers to submit to roadside tests and have
the power to take suspected drug-impaired drivers to a police station
or hospital to give a blood, urine or saliva sample.

Refusing the test will be considered a criminal offence.

Drivers convicted of drug-impaired driving face a minimum $1,000 fine
for a first offence and a month in jail for a second conviction.
