Driving Law with Kyla Lee: Episode 25

Oh boy. This week’s episode of the Driving Law Podcast is a must-listen if you’re at all concerned about cannabis impaired driving. I speak with Ron Moore, a forensic toxicologist and lawyer, who has unique expertise in cannabis impairment and driving. Ron has also helpfully provided a bibliography with the studies he relied on in making his comments, and you can find that bibliography if you click “Read More” below.

You can catch Driving Law on SoundCloud, subscribe on iTunes, or listen on PlayerFM.


Thanks again to the amazing Ron Moore for participating and providing this really useful bibliography:
