Letter: Cannabis is the driving problem
Derek Williams Essex Evening Gazette
Wednesday 08 Dec 1999 Cannabis is the driving problem Unlike your correspondent Don Barnard, I have no trouble accepting strict enforcement of the laws against drug driving It scares me to think of the number of people driving while doped up on drugs - medical as well as illegal. I would have no objection to these people being taken of the road. The only problem is-as always its seems- cannabis. Cannabis user will test positive weeks after a smoke, so roadside chemical test are of no use for spotting stoned drivers and would really be no more than an enforcement tool for it' continued prohibitions. I do feel it's important that any road safety programme of drug driving enforcement should be just that, and not a way of propping up the 1971 Misuse of Drugs Act. Derek Williams, Norwich Norfolk
