A presumption in Colorado that a BAC at 0.08 or above means you are driving under the influence of alcohol; scientifically studied as a definitive hard line.
“So first you have DUI, which is driving under the influence. So I'm sure a lot of you have heard about the 0.08 standard. What that is, is there's a presumption in the state of Colorado that if your BAC, or your blood alcohol content, is at point 0.08 or above then you are driving under the influence of alcohol.”
“Now then the question comes, well what about weed? It's legal here in Colorado. There's a presumption that the law allows now for the DAs to use, and they have a presumptive five nanograms of THC in your bloodstream at which they equivocate that, or make it equivalent to the 0.08. Now the 0.08 in alcohol terms has been proven, it's scientifically studied that is a definitive hard line. The presumption for THC of five nanograms in your system is a little softer, so it doesn't mean that if you definitely have it then you can be charged with DUI per se, meaning you're absolutely over that limit. But the DAs can use that information and say "Well, it's the same kind of level as if you were at the 0.08."”
