Cannabis cannot be used in a motor vehicle. Keep the product closed and secure during transport. A passenger carrying cannabis does not make an impaired driver lawful or safe.
Do not drive someone to help while impaired.
Use emergency services, Poison Control, a sober driver, or a rideshare when a response becomes concerning. Call 911 for an emergency. Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 can advise on an exposure or symptoms without requiring the caller to guess what level of care is needed.
