I hear you. The saliva test isn’t perfect, but it’s something.
Where I live only a doctor is allowed to draw and test your blood, which is tough to do at the side of the road during a traffic stop. They need a lab for that. So a saliva test is much more viable in that context.
Blood test is better for weed. It’s only detectable for 12h vs 24h with saliva.
But levels of THC aren’t really correlated with impairment.
I would even say some drivers might be better drivers with hints of calming THC&CBD in their system…
12 to 24h seems good (maybe even too long imho) in the context of driving a car.
Not when the levels have no bearing on intoxication.
The same applies to alcohol to some degree. We as a society need to set some limits
No, it doesn’t. BAC is directly related to impairment, even with chronic drinkers.
The problem is that THC tests check for the metabolite that THC is broken down into, not actual THC. Alcohol tests check for actual alcohol.

No, it’s not something. The tests are not a measure of impairment.
