My mother told myself and others he had learn the laws for legal, medical marijuana and, according to her, I could not transfer it in my car, then this sounded unusual to me, however i was twenty-one plus legally allowed to use marijuana in Albuquerque, NM, whether it was medical or recreational. I had to get it home somehow, so why could not I put it in my car? I looked up the laws pertaining to transferation of marijuana in a personal car. The only thing it says is that medical or recreational marijuana could not be consumed in public, consumption was allowed in your home, or in public locales where it is allowed. I could carry marijuana in my car, but it had be in a closed container, plus out of the reach of the driver. If it was unopened marijuana the marijuana had to be in its original packaging. I could not figure out what mom was talking about, or why he brought it up to me. I called mom plus asked why he was talking about transfering marijuana, and he said he had learn that a young guy was arrested for having marijuana in his car. I had learn the same article in the Albuquerque, NM, newspaper. I assumed mom learn only the headlines, because that wasn’t why he was arrested. She had packages of marijuana that exceeded the amount he was allowed to have; it was in opened packages, plus when he saw the cop, he threw a joint out the window. The cop said he could smell the marijuana as soon as he got out of his car.
