This note assesses the various marijuana DUI laws that states have implemented to combat marijuana-impaired driving.

The Application Of New York's Driving While Intoxicated Statute, Elizabeth Gross Jan 1980

The Application Of New York's Driving While Intoxicated Statute, Elizabeth Gross

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This Note analyzes the constitutional issues raised by section 1192 of New York State's Vehicle and Traffic Law. The argument it addresses is that the statute is unconstitutionally vague as it does not define the words "impaired" and "intoxicated."
