Can you get a DUI for driving high in Idaho?

Weed is still illegal here in Idaho, so I’m not sure what would happen if you were caught driving high. Is it still a DUI if you get caught driving high instead of drunk, or is it a different charge?

You’re right that your home state has some pretty intense laws surrounding marijuana use and possession! While you can get a
DUI in Idaho
for driving high, you’ll likely also receive other charges if you’re caught with marijuana.
For example, in
Idaho
, you could be charged with a
DUI
and possession of an illicit substance, meaning you could be hit with some heavy fines, jail time, and license revocation or suspension.
You’ll also typically have a pretty difficult time finding affordable
car insurance
after those charges. Luckily, the
Jerr​​y
app can help you make sure that you’re getting the best rate available to you on the coverage you need.
