Pass part E (S.3008A/A.3008A) of Governor Hochul's Transportation, Economic Development, and Environmental Conservation budget


Please sign this petition to insist the New York State legislature pass the Governor's Drugged Driving Proposal (S.3008A/A.3008A) in part E of Governor Hochul's Transportation, Economic Development, and Environmental Conservation budget or the Deadly Driving Bill (S.6485/A3981) NOW!
NY is one of only 4 states that prohibits charging dangerously impaired drivers unless the drug used is on a statutory list. Why? The type of alcohol does not have to be named for drunk drivers and if they refuse a test, they are still arrested on observations of impairment. Why not drugged drivers? Impaired is impaired. Dangerous is dangerous.
False information is circulating about the bill and cannabis. It has been illegal to drive while impaired by cannabis since 1966 based on observations and without a THC amount test (like a BAC). It still is and would continue unchanged under the bills. A test would be unfair because science does not support a single amount for all drivers.
Sign the petition now! Tell your legislators and the Governor that you are tired of feeling threatened by drugged drivers on NY's roadways and you want the law fixed.
