Dui Without Marijuana Possesssion?

Question by : Dui without marijuana possesssion?
Ok, so my best friend got pulled over because he did a “California” stop .. but he did slow down and stop for a second around 12am going 30miles an hour where NO ONE was around but the cop.. then the guy pulled him over, and got him out of the car to do some tests.. he did about 3 tests on him before he arrested him for DUI of Marijuana, WITHOUT possession.. his charges was just a muffler, and that damn yield. We’re in the process of finding an attorney, but before we do I wanted to know if the charges will go through?? I don’t care about the yield and muffler, but DUI WITHOUT possession? I never even HEARD of that.. I was wondering if anyone else had this experience..
Thanks..
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention he does have a medical license, it’s being processed but it takes 30 days, but he has the doctor’s refferal.. does that count?
Oh, and he smoked 3hrs before he started driving..
