The odour of cannabis was detected, police add, and the man was tested using drug-screening equipment.

According to South Simcoe police officers, the test resulted in a positive reading for THC, the main intoxicating substance in cannabis.

The man’s licence was suspended for three days, and he received a ticket for disobeying the sign, police add.

According to officers, drivers are not allowed to have cannabis in their system if they’re 21 and under, have a G1, G2, M1 or M2 licence or if they’re driving a vehicle that requires an A-F driver’s licence or a commercial vehicle operator’s registration.

This is the South Simcoe Police Service’s first three-day licence suspension for a cannabis-related offence.

I was charged for a DUI same as alcohol for having thc in my blood. They got a warrant to draw blood at the hospital. It's BS because thc is in your blood for at least 24 hr. I should have fought it but they dropped it to impaired driving with no jail time (I have 2 regular DUIs). They took my license for a year and gave me 80 hours of community service. He's lucky it wasn't in the US or he would have got more than 3 fricken days.
