   A California company said it has created the first marijuana   
   breathalyzer test, which has the potential to be used by police   
   to detect whether drivers have used the drug.   
      
   As more states legalize marijuana for recreational and medical   
   use, law enforcement officials have grown increasingly concerned   
   about individuals driving while high. Until now, police officers   
   in the U.S. did not have any roadside means to determine whether   
   a driver had consumed cannabis.   
      
   They have depended mostly on field sobriety tests developed to   
   catch alcohol use, or on personal observation, which is subject   
   to deception. But Oakland-based Hound Labs wants to make testing   
   for marijuana as easy as testing for alcohol.
