SKYNEWS.COM.AUVictorian government moving to make medicinal cannabis legal whilst drivingThe Victorian government is moving to make medicinal cannabis legal for patients driving behind the wheel. A private members bill is being debated in Parliament’s upper house today which would treat Medicinal Cannabis like any other prescription medication, when it comes to driving. The legislation would amend the state’s Road Safety Act to not make it an offence for a driver to have THC in their system, provided they have a prescription.
