The ONLY issue I have with this is that the level they are testing for does not seem to be based on actual science. We should set a limit on what level of risk outside the norm of driving is no longer acceptable. We should then identify things that increase your risk beyond that point and measure for them. Alcohol, tobacco, texting, talking on phones etc should all be treated exactly the same way.
I don't care why you run a red light and kill someone. If you are high, drunk, texting, talking on a phone, shaving etc it only matters that you do it and the laws need to be based on that. Laws based on feelings and how much you think it impairs someone without any actual science involved are a waste of time and end up harming us all since it increases general contempt for laws.
