Reflecting on 4/20: A Recap of Our Reddit AMA on Colorado Marijuana

As 4/20 came and went, we want to thank all those who participated in our Reddit Ask Me Anything (AMA) session. It was a pleasure to engage with you and address your questions about Colorado marijuana laws. For those who traveled from neighboring states to celebrate this cannabis-centric holiday in Colorado, we hope you had a fantastic and safe time enjoying our legal cannabis products and treats.

In this post, we’d like to highlight some of the most interesting and frequently asked questions from the AMA, shedding light on important topics related to marijuana in Colorado:

  • Can someone on a bicycle get busted for smoking while riding? If they got into an accident, would that make a difference?
  • Yes, getting a DUI while riding a bicycle is possible, but there’s an important distinction to note. Your driver’s license will not be affected unless the bike is motorized. If you plan to visit a dispensary on your bicycle, ensure that your cannabis products are securely stored in closed containers, preferably in their original packaging, and stowed away safely, such as in a backpack.
  • Weirdest DUI case:
  • We are currently handling a case involving a person with a unique health condition whose body naturally produces yeast, affecting the results of a blood alcohol content (BAC) test. This case is a reminder of the complexities that can arise in DUI cases, and it’s essential to have legal representation that understands these nuances.
  • We like to have fun here:
  • “As my lawyer, what strain would you recommend for kayaking down the Pooter in Fort Collins?” While we don’t have personal experience, our legal research suggests that Haze strains, Trainwreck, and AK-47 are popular among those with an active lifestyle. However, it’s crucial to remember that smoking in public remains illegal. If you plan to partake, ensure you are in a cannabis-friendly location to avoid potential legal issues.
