Law enforcement authorities say they need more money for more training in order to spot people driving under the influence of marijuana. It's not difficult to spot somebody driving under the influence of alcohol. If law enforcement cannot identify stoned drivers, then it's probably because stoned drivers don't drive aggressively and instead quietly and legally follow our driving laws. Why do we need to spend more money to train police to ferret out people who are driving safely and within our speed limits? William Gum, Denver - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
