Germany Sets THC Limits For Drivers, Opposition Groups Say It's Too High
Lawmakers in Germany have set a maximum allowed limit of THC – tetrahydrocannabinol, a psychoactive substance found in the cannabis plant- for drivers to have in the blood. The Bundestag, the country's lower house of parliament, introduced this week a limit of 3.5 nanograms per milliliter. As DW highlighted that's an equivalent to 20 milligrams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood. The decision builds on a recommendation by an expert panel commissioned by the Transport Ministry.
