The Cannabis testing system of the present invention includes monitored administration of an amount of Cannabis to an individual. The individual will utilize a test vehicle to perform motor vehicle tests prior to Cannabis administration. Ensuing performance of the initial motor vehicle tests the individual has administered thereto an amount of Cannabis. The amount of Cannabis present in the individual is measured in either a blood or urine test. The individual performs a second set of motor vehicle tests wherein the second set of motor vehicle tests are identical to the first set of motor vehicle tests. A comparison of the two motor vehicle tests are made and based on the results of the comparison a certificate and endorsement are provided to the individual. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A Cannabis testing system operable to provide demonstration of competent motor vehicle operation subsequent ingestion of Cannabis comprising the steps of: establishing a testing facility; providing a motor vehicle testing area; executing a set of first motor vehicle tests; measuring the first motor vehicle tests; recording the first motor vehicle tests; administering Cannabis to a user that has completed the first motor vehicle tests; executing a set of second motor vehicle tests, wherein the second motor vehicle tests are identical to the first motor vehicle tests; measuring the second motor vehicle tests; comparing results from the first motor vehicle tests and the second motor vehicle tests; determining eligibility for motor vehicle operation; and providing a certification for operation of a motor vehicle subsequent ingestion of Cannabis. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 1, and further including the step of waiting to complete the second motor vehicle tests, wherein an individual is required to wait at least thirty minutes prior to executing the second motor vehicle tests. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 2, wherein administration of the Cannabis is performed at a level of one half gram to two grams. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 3, and further including the step of collecting a fee, wherein an operator of the Cannabis testing system will collect a fee from an individual desiring to be tested. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 4, wherein the first motor vehicle tests and second motor vehicle tests including stopping procedures from various speeds. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 5, wherein the first motor vehicle tests and second motor vehicle tests are performed on an identical vehicle. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 6, and further including the step of measuring the Cannabis level in an individual, wherein measurement of the Cannabis level is performed via blood or urine specimen. ### Claim 8 A Cannabis testing system operable to prove competent motor vehicle operation for an individual that has ingested Cannabis wherein the Cannabis testing system comprises the steps of: establishing a testing facility; providing a motor vehicle testing area, wherein the motor vehicle testing area is sufficient to operate a motor vehicle within and perform various driving procedures; collecting a fee, wherein an individual seeking certification by the Cannabis testing system pays a fee to an operator of the Cannabis testing system; executing a set of first motor vehicle tests, said first motor vehicle tests being performed utilizing a test vehicle; measuring the first motor vehicle tests; recording the first motor vehicle tests; administering Cannabis to a user that has completed the first motor vehicle tests; measuring Cannabis levels present in the individual; executing a set of second motor vehicle tests, wherein the second motor vehicle tests are identical to the first motor vehicle tests, wherein the second motor vehicle tests are performed utilizing the test vehicle used to perform the first motor vehicle tests; measuring the second motor vehicle tests; comparing results from the first motor vehicle tests and the second motor vehicle tests; determining eligibility for motor vehicle operation; and providing a certification for operation of a motor vehicle subsequent ingestion of Cannabis. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 8, and further including the step of waiting a time period to perform the second motor vehicle tests. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 9, wherein the step of waiting a time period to perform the second motor vehicle tests is within a time range of five minutes to thirty minutes. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 10, and further including the step of producing an endorsement, wherein the operator of the Cannabis testing system produces an endorsement for an individual to operate a motor vehicle having ingested an amount of Cannabis. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 11, wherein the endorsement is provided on a drivers license of the individual or a motor vehicle plate. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 12, wherein administration of the Cannabis is performed at a level of one half gram to two grams. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The Cannabis testing system as recited in claim 13, wherein the step of comparing results from the first motor vehicle tests and the second motor vehicle tests must be within ten percent in order for an individual to receive a certification from the Cannabis testing system. ### Claim 15 A Cannabis testing system operable to prove competent motor vehicle operation for an individual that has ingested Cannabis wherein the Cannabis testing system comprises the steps of: establishing a testing facility; providing a motor vehicle testing area, wherein the motor vehicle testing area is sufficient to operate a motor vehicle within and perform various driving procedures; collecting a fee, wherein an individual seeking certification by the Cannabis testing system pays a fee to an operator of the Cannabis testing system;
