Can you get a DUI for driving high in South Dakota?
I use cannabis for medical purposes, but I don’t usually operate a car after because I’m scared of getting a DUI! Is it bad to drive while high on pot?

You’re right to be nervous! You can get a DUI for driving high in
South Dakota
or any other state in the US—even places where the drug is legal.While you won’t be charged with possession of an illicit substance, you can still face serious consequences if you’re caught driving high, including:
- One year in jail
- Fine of $2,000
- Loss of driving privileges for 30 days to one year
You’ll also see an increase in your
car insurance
rates after a DUI. To combat this, check out the Jerry
