Caveat: we're not lawyers. That said, cannabis is still classified as schedule 1 federally, which means that it has no recognized medical use, and is not legally prescribable. That means that there's no ada recognition of the medical uses for cannabis, which likely would mean that there's no ada protection for cannabis users.

@@gaize so even if cannabis was puscribed by a doc , because it's not federaly legal it's moot ? Ok 👍 what about job classification and the rehabilitation act because it's discrimination to the disabled to pay less or refuse work due to disability if the person can work, no?

@@AllenJanek This sounds like a great question for someone more educated on the nuances of labor law and how that interplays with state cannabis laws. Sorry we can't help more!

There are numerous other causes of Nystagmus though, so this is a poor test at best.

Which means nothing. There are a number of reasons why someone might exhibit signs of Nystagmus, including simply being nearsighted. This, as a "test" of alcohol, is pretty much useless, as are field sobriety tests in general. They're mostly useless, as any number of things can cause people to fail them even when completely sober. Police aren't optometrists, and they're not qualified to test anyone on their medical ability to walk a line or balance. The only one that really matters is the blood or breathalyzer test, as that's the only way you can tell how much someone has been potentially drinking. People usually don't exhibit completely obvious signs unless they're very, very drunk (or a lightweight).

There's certainly a difference, which is why we put the video up. Nystagmus happens on the peripheries.

@@gaize Alrighty then...if you say so

There's definitely a difference, look closer. Nystagmus happens on the peripheries.

Nick, please send a message to [email protected] about this. We're happy to help, but would like to understand the use case.

Definitely! I've watched many videos claiming to show this but I've struggled to *really* see it. Now I can't unsee it...I get it!

We've accounted for genetic resting nystagmus and only detect gaze evoked nystagmus which is created by alcohol and other depressant drugs.

The "glitchy" motion is called "lack of smooth pursuit". It's one of the clues that law enforcement look for as well.

What?! You have to look closely. When the person's eyes are all the way devated to the left or right, the intoxicated person's eyes jump/twitch while the sober person's do not. This is pretty mild though, I've seen it way worse in some drunk people.

Have you been drinking? I can clearly see the difference. 😂

Yo ire drunk bud

@Cantelopechans "Yo ire" drunk too perhaps.

@@Cantelopechans huge fail. 🤦

The impaired eyes display a lack of smooth pursuit and have distinctive nystagmus present.

I mean I can see it but it's so slight that if I didn't have reference then I wouldn't be able to tell

Impairment from alcohol causes nystagmus and lack of smooth pursuit.

Look closer! There's a lot more going on than that.

Nope, they're correct.

Also, it doesn't take a genuis to spot a drunk person. Anyone can pick them out of a crowd. And not to mention the overwhelming smell of alcohol when a drunk driver rolls down their windows is a huge indicator lol. People cannot hide that they're drunk. And a cop logically cannot spot the jerky eye movement of an impaired driver just by talking to them. They have to have them focus on something and follow it with their eyes.

Right sode is jerkier

Not true at all bro

@@KR3WUprising wanna bet??..that is unless you have very deep pockets 🤣🤣🤣

@@mikesabota2570 lol I’ve been in the situation just be smart

Yea ikr

Urine and blood are great for showing the presence of THC, but that's only indicative of prior use. These tests cannot show active impairment, which is what Gaize is for. We don't care about prior use, and can only measure the impairment as it's being experienced.

There are a number of subtle differences. The jerking you see is called nystagmus and is the most common. It's primarily caused by depressant drug impairment (like alcohol).

@@KenFichtlerhow do you know this?

@@osukuru Because after smelling booze on your breath (which you can't cover up) this is a test that definitive and easy to train police on and there is no way for a drunk to fake it.

No, the jerking, or Nystagmus, is caused by a huge number of things (like simply being nearsighted)--alcohol only being one of them (and not even guaranteed). This is NOT any kind of indication if someone has been drinking, and honestly it shouldn't even be admissible as a legal test in court.

Haha not funny. This is for people in criminal justice

@@Ena48145i can’t see the difference between the two they look identical to me?

@@Ena48145 …? it wasn’t a joke. i’d been breaking into the world of alcohol for the first time and saw it fit to examine the physical signs and sensations of intoxication

Not necessarily, we work with commercial businesses too.

Hi 👋🏽 ​@@duckscitomaster1308 I believe the alcohol eyes jutt back and forth, quickly and slightly; while the sober eyes move smoothly 😍

We're working on it!

I fully support the work you're doing! @@gaize

Way too funny. I needed a good laugh this morning. Thank you!😂

Thanks! This test subject is not wearing contacts, but we have some with contact wearers if you're interested. These are filmed in infrared light, which is why it appears black and white. The ten dots on each eye are reflections from the infrared illuminators in our headset.

This is creepy but cool. Ive always wondered what they see in these test. Thanks for sharing.

how do you know if you have it? I mean, I can't see that myself, right?

Thanks @DopeCop!

@@gangstaboy9387 You could try to self administer the test by focusing on the tip of a finger as you bring it toward the bridge of your nose. If you cannot hold your focus on the fingertip, that's a good indication that you're too high to drive.

@@gaizethanks. this is informative
