A California company said it has created the first marijuana
breathalyzer test, which has the potential to be used by police
to detect whether drivers have used the drug.

As more states legalize marijuana for recreational and medical
use, law enforcement officials have grown increasingly concerned
about individuals driving while high. Until now, police officers
in the U.S. did not have any roadside means to determine whether
a driver had consumed cannabis.

They have depended mostly on field sobriety tests developed to
catch alcohol use, or on personal observation, which is subject
to deception. But Oakland-based Hound Labs wants to make testing
for marijuana as easy as testing for alcohol.
