4. Walking around while high
For obvious reasons, you can’t drive high, but it seems totally legal to walk around while high. Still, being high and causing disturbance can result in jail time. In general, all states have the same laws regarding the influence of substances.
If you disturb the peace by harassing your neighbors or other people or even endangering them and yourself due to substance use, the police won’t be friendly. Therefore, it’s a good idea to stay in the comfort of your own home while being high. Without even realizing it, you could break other laws, and your situation could lead to other complications.

This is not correct, its called “public Intoxication” and even if you are not completely intoxicated, that is how it will be filed. Your only recourse is a lab test which will likely reveal any illegal substances in your system. If you beat the drunk test the cop will claim you were intoxicated and mearly recovered due to the time it took to get the test. If you have anything in your system you will be charged and you will loose. I have seen this happen to several of the employees that have worked for me.
