Millions of people in the U.S. use a CPAP machine at night for the treatment of sleep apnea.

What Are the Rules for Medical Cannabis and Car Accidents?

In fact, it's the contrary no state allows for medical marijuana permit patients to drive while under the influence of cannabis. These states believe that an impaired motorist is an unsafe driver, regardless of the reason for impairment.
