ME LD1815

Requires drivers involved in motor vehicle accidents resulting in serious bodily injury or death to submit to a blood test for drugs when there is probable cause to believe the driver was under the influence

Defines "THC level" as the amount in nanograms of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol per milliliter of blood

Blood test results are admissible at trial only if the court finds probable cause existed, independent of the test result, to believe the driver was under the influence at the time of the accident

Secretary of State must suspend for one year the license of any person who refuses to submit to the required blood test

Suspension may be removed if the person demonstrates at a hearing that they were not under the influence of drugs or did not negligently cause the accident
