Send us a text

The measure of injuries and fatalities on the country’s roadways following cannabis legalization has been haphazard and inconclusive. In this episode Herb speaks with Chuck DeWeese, former head of the New York State Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee, former chair of the national Governors’ Highway Safety Association, and founder/CEO of Connecting Clients Consulting LLC. In addition to the results seen in longstanding legal jurisdictions, Herb and Chuck discuss new tools on the horizon to assist law enforcement in determining levels of impairment caused by cannabis consumption.
The Licensee Highlight segment focuses on licensed cultivator and microprocessor applicant, William Leibee of Back Home Farms NY. William describes his approach to sustainable farming under an organic management plan that practices crop rotation, cover cropping, without the use of synthetic chemicals. Herb and William are joined by Mike Hassell, co-founder of Elevated Strategies, a consultancy assisting Back Home Farm NY.
