A cinematic feature image for The Cannabis Lie Vol. 2 titled The Fiction of Impairment, showing a distressed driver behind the wheel while a gloved hand holds a vial labeled THC Test in the foreground, police lights flashing outside the windshield, highlighting the debate over THC detection versus actual impairment, PotCultureMagazine.com visible at the bottom.

THE CANNABIS LIE is a reporting series examining how cannabis policy turns shaky assumptions into hard penalties. In THE CANNABIS LIE: Vol. 2, The Fiction of Impairment, THC detection is often treated like proof of impairment, even though blood levels show a weak, inconsistent relationship to functional driving ability.
