According to the manufacturer&#8217;s website, the handheld unit is easy to use and produces accurate results. It can also analyze for up to six different drugs, including Marijuana.<\/p>\n<p>In evaluating a driver, a police officer would correlate the results of a saliva test with all of the other observable signs of impairment, such as any observations made at the roadside, the driver\u2019s performance on field sobriety testing, and any admissions made. If the officer believes, based on a combination of all of the evidence acquired at the roadside that probable cause exists to make an arrest, then the driver will be taken into custody and charged with DUI. While many people refer to these charges as DUI, in Michigan the crime is called OWI or operating while intoxicated.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.baronedefensefirm.com\/blog\/michigan-roadside-saliva-testing-for-marijuana-use-now-in-use-statewide\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Michigan Roadside Saliva Testing for Marijuana Use Now in Use Statewide\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A localized pilot program to allow Michigan police officers to test a driver\u2019s saliva for the presence of marijuana has been expanded statewide.\u00a0 If you have used marijuana or cannabis containing products and then drive a motor vehicle in Michigan, you should be aware that roadside testing for marijuana use is now available to all [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23,21,27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-criminal-evidence","category-dui-drug-charges","category-owi"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Michigan Roadside Saliva Testing for Marijuana Use Now in Use Statewide &#8212;
