Medical Cannabis And Driving Laws In NSW
New South Wales is preparing landmark reforms to drug-driving laws that would allow medicinal cannabis patients to drive with THC in their system, provided they meet specific conditions and stay below prescribed thresholds. The proposal introduces a three-strike warning system and threshold-based testing, marking a significant departure from the state's current zero-tolerance approach that has long penalised legitimate patients who test positive days after medication use.
