But, yesterday the state Supreme Judicial Court ruled that the smell
of marijuana is NOT justification for a cop to order the driver to get
out of the car. OUI statutes are NOT limited to alcohol, but any
drug, and the smell of alcohol is more than enough justification for
such an order.
The ruling resulted from a cop smelling weed, and ordering the driver
out of the car. He also had a big bag of rock.
All thrown out, as the search was illegal.
Oh, and in Amherst, MA, you can't smoke cigarettes in your car, but
now weed is just fine.
Only in the liberal Nirvana known as Massachusetts.
