MARIJUANA LAWS NEED TO BE CHANGED

Regarding "A sober approach to legal pot" (Editorial, July 23): One 
significant change needs to be made in the laws regarding driving 
under the influence. Currently there is no threshold lower limit 
which would indicate that a person had pot in his bloodstream, but it 
did not affect his driving ability. Currently anyone found with any 
detectible pot in his blood stream and involved in a serious traffic 
accident is considered under the influence. A change needs to made to 
make pot laws similar to what we have regarding alcohol legal limits.
