As part of its case, the prosecution has to prove that you were driving a vehicle while you were under the influence of marijuana. That is, the prosecution must show that your mental abilities were compromised at the time you were driving and that you could not safely operate your automobile. Unless you?ve made incriminating statements that you were high while you were driving, proving this is quite difficult because marijuana is different than alcohol. In alcohol cases, driving while under the influence is proven by showing that you had a blood-alcohol level that was over the prescribed limit. Currently, in California, there is no threshold for showing impairment of marijuana; as such, absent incriminating statements by you, this is difficult to prove.
