If the cop comes up with a reason for probable cause, or can show reasonable suspicion that you are intoxicated (classic "I smell burnt cannabis in the car" bullshit) then yes. They can detain you until a blood test is done.
Never said they SHOULD be able to do this, but it is 100% plausible.

Good thing the police can't access the MMJ database.

That and employment laws. Kinda stupid that I can come back from the weekend and everyone has a drinking story. But say about smoking some weed and you'll be getting a call from HR.

So you get pulled over for speeding and they give you a blood test? Ok.

I'm genuinely curious what else lvhn should do. Options are, as I see them. A) keep her as a patient forever B) send her back to her native country C) place her outside on the curb
I'm in favor of universal Healthcare. All for protecting illegal aliens and letting them become a citizen. But this happens often and in other developed countries

Reply to 16 female lawmakers call on PA Rep. Mike Zabel, accused of sexual harassment, to resign by CurGeorge8
Republicans are frothing at the mouth over sexual misconduct because it's a Democrat, yet silent about the misconduct within their own party. Doesn't surprise me. The party of hypocrites.

It doesn't matter how you get pulled over.
Let's say the cop pulls you over for a tail light that's out, but finds some bullshit probable cause to test you for DUI. If you've used cannabis in the last month, you're pretty well fucked due to the incredibly low limit for THC in the blood mentioned above in this thread.
The way the law is currently written, if you use cannabis on a regular basis, you are technically committing a DUI every time you drive in PA, whether you are currently high or not.
This combined with the fact I can't legally own a firearm with a medical card is why I haven't bothered to get one. It doesn't offer me any real protections or benefits for the fees I'd have to pay, and it's giving documentation of my cannabis use to the state that can be used against me when the cops see fit.
Thanks, but no thanks.

Do you have any other suggestions? I see you were the one who called them soulless, so i'm deducing you're being sarcastic. Should she stay there for the remainder of her life?

It really was a beautiful commute this morning through some mountain roads.

But how would you get pulled over to be tested anyway? You’re still high after 15 days?

They did give her 10 weeks of services without pay. Is that not charitable?

I mean sure but at the same time she's been hospitalized for 10 weeks and had brain surgery. Unless the patient and family pay out of pocket, this will be entirely free of charge.
And while in a coma, she might not require to be hospitalized any longer. Then of course, where does she go? No rehab will take her in.
What is LVHN to do if someone doesn't require hospitalization?

Oh I almost forgot; people still have weed charges on their record. Meanwhile, the state sells it as medicine.

Because it's a zero tolerance law. One microgram in your blood an old wham, you're DUI.

I mean yes technically THC stays in one’s system for 30 days depending on body fat content but if you haven’t smoked in 15 days how you getting a DUI?

Yes!! That should have been my top complaint. Would certainly save a lot of money and help a lot more people.

So non-profits pay all the property, state income and sales tax?
So when I give a non-profit ID # to stores when I buy stuff for the non-profit charity fund-raising group I'm affiliated with, we're NOT getting the benefit of claiming to be a non-profit?
(I was under the impression non-profit health care providers in PA had to provide a certain amount of charity care, but sadly, I was very wrong.)
