Your Uber Driver Might Be More Stoned Than You Think: Cannabis and Driving Laws in South Africa
Cannabis driving laws are becoming a major issue as more countries legalise or decriminalise cannabis. While the rules differ around the world, one thing is clear: driving while impaired is not treated casually. Some countries use roadside saliva testing, others rely on blood THC limits, and many still focus on whether a driver appears impaired. For South Africa, the challenge is finding a fair way to balance cannabis rights with road safety. Legal cannabis does not mean legal cannabis driving, and understanding that difference matters for every driver, passenger, and cannabis consumer.
