Defining Marijuana DUI in Nevada
According to Nevada law, NRS 484C.110, a person is guilty of a marijuana DUI if any of the following conditions are true at the time of arrest:
- The driver’s blood contains 5 nanograms per milliliter of marijuana metabolite or 2 nanograms per milliliter of marijuana
- The individual’s urine contains 15 nanograms per milliliter of marijuana metabolite or 10 nanograms per milliliter of marijuana
- The person behind the wheel has ingested marijuana to a degree which leaves them unable to drive safely or have physical control of the vehicle
Because these state laws only discuss the amount of marijuana found in a driver’s urine or blood, a driver can be arrested for driving under the influence of marijuana even if the driver is not high at the time of arrest.
Possible Penalties and Fines
If you have been arrested for driving under the influence of marijuana, you may be subject to facing the same fines and penalties as a person caught driving while under the influence of alcohol.
If convicted, you may face the following consequences:
- Up to $1,000.00 in court costs
- 2 days to 6 months in jail
- 24-96 hours of community service
- 9-day driver’s license suspension
- Nevada DUI school
- Nevada Victim Impact Panel
