    Should cannabis be held to the same standards as alcohol in trucking? Should we be able to use cannabis during our 10hr breaks, vacation, etc?
    For those added info, there are new breathalyzers that test for THC and are accurately able to test if you've used cannabis within the past 2 to 3 hours, which is the time frame for a typical cannabis high.

    Since we have reached the pinnacle of professionalism with respect to driving, our dress and our interaction with the public, now is the perfect time for potential impaired driving.

    Maybe some of those AI driver facing cameras could say "your eyes are bloodshot, Stoner. Pull over immediately."

    I'm not sure you understood the post, it says, 'do you believe we should be able to use cannabis on our time off?'

    Why shouldn't people be able to use cannabis on their time off like they use alcohol?

    What's wrong with using on your time off? As a driver I see empty beer cans and packaging at almost every truck stop, why shouldn't people be able to use cannabis during their time off?
