You cannot get a dui just for having a card. That said, dui blood tests often include one for marijuana metabolites. These chemicals remain in the blood long after ingestion, presumably after the "high" is gone. A positive result can get you a dui. The dui law is based on marijuana being a federal schedule 1 drug, supposedly having no valid medical use. As far as I'm aware, there is no acceptable "therapeutic level" of thc regarding dui. You're taking your chances, even long after use. I'd suggest not driving after ingesting, and not keeping the card or medication in the vehicle. Also don't advise police you have a card. This will greatly reduce the odds of being tested. Of course, if you have a CDL, or are involved in a serious or fatal accident, you may be subject to testing anyway.

and don't drive in such a way that a cop will pull you over for looking impaired. and don't have shit in your car that makes them suspect you've been using. It's quite simple.

I don't use and whenever I've been pulled over I've never been suspected of DUI.

I think people leave weed out in view of the cops, or the car smells like weed, etc etc. It's like having an open container in the car.

Put it all in the trunk and you have much more plausible deniability. However with how much weed I smell while driving or biking coming from other cars, a lot of people use while driving.
