Oh you can and they 100% will it is still heavily regulated: only a certain % thc and not more than 25g. So they can also do a thc quick test and weigh it.
Also there is still the argument which they can use that if you take marijuana that means you do other things so please also take a urine test…
What I’m saying is that very eager cops can and will continue to annoy people
But weed is the devil’s evil hand designed drug to get them to take harder drugs and listen to metal /s
On a more serious note: a lot of cops here sadly still see it like this and i am afraid that it won’t stop just because a law is there.
To be honest I except the law to just last, similarly to Thailand, till the next election. Germany just like the most rest of Europa will vote pretty heavily leaning right and they basically swore to “destroy” that law. Thanks for listening to my ted talk Here’s a friendly PSA: The permitted level of THC in blood/urine while driving has not been increased.
True, there is currently a interdisciplinary working group that will determine if and how much it will be increased by but it could very well lead to no increase.
Did this actually happen to you? I’ve been to, and even smoked weed in (discreetly), Germany many times as a tourist without issue. It was just annoying that it was technically illegal…but no one ever attempted to drug test me or ask me about drug use at all.
Yes, I didn’t spend a lot of time in Germany but it happened several times. I traveled by train and they claim the train stations are where people do their business
They make you empty your pockets and pat you down.
They look like gangsters claiming to be police, don’t even show a badge until you ask for it, they want all your stuff, like your wallet, to search through it.
At least it takes away one reason for undercover German police to annoy foreigners with their “random” drug tests

It would at least help if they stop assuming the only reason a foreigner from the free west would come through Germany is to sell weed.

It is going to be increased from 1ng to 3 which is not a lot but something. The whole decriminalization is not a lot but something.
I really would like to see a source to that since AFAIK “§ 24 a Straßenverkehrsgesetz” doesn’t get changed…
They will do this post CanG

First time I hear that, happend to you?
Hahaha happens to many people who have brown skin or look like a punk or hippie in the eyes of some cop.
My dad used to wear a black leather vest and long hair. He was searched uncountable times.
Wait, what now? Do they walk around making tourists piss in cups if they look like they smoked weed?

Good ol’ stop and frisk. It doesn’t prevent crime and it let’s bastard cops be bastards
Well Floris-Jan it might just be you. Do you happen to look like a drug dealer?
Not at all :) But I suppose it was obvious I was a tourist
