I couldn't agree more - just because I advocate for people charged with DUI does not mean that I advocate driving under the influence of any substance. It is interesting that marijuana is treated so much more harshly than alcohol because of its history in the U.S. Most people would find it outrageous if they could be charged with DUI weeks after imbibing alcohol as is the case with Marijuana in Pennsylvania.
While that doesn't seem to be the case here, I have represented many people who were NOT actually under the influence of marijuana when driving but had ingested weeks earlier.
