An Act establishing a standing commission on operating under the influence and impaired driving

Summary

This legislation was filed in conjunction with the Cannabis Control Commission, to help the Commonwealth better address the effects of impaired driving. While the mission of the commission would extend to all impaired driving, it includes specific directives regarding the challenges of legalized marijuana. The Commission will be directed to study the emerging scientific and medical tests, as well as considering the civil liberties of the driver, socio-economic impacts of the testing, and the admissibility of evidence in court proceedings.
