Mate, if you drank enough to be impacted seven days later, you’d be dead. For THC, my understanding is that it’s generally mostly or fully metabolized well before then, and we typically test for metabolites, not raw psychoactive ingredients. Those metabolites aren’t something your body rushes to excrete like with most hard drugs. In other words, after a week of not smoking, you are sober, but you could still fail this drug test.

I was not talking about having 1 ‰ after a week, but about drinkers who are keeping their level constantly without “feeling” drunk.
You are comparing unrelated things. These are 2 different substances that impair and metabolize in 2 different ways.
So just because a constant drunk would say the same thing as someone who hadn’t consumed in a week, the guy who’s been sober can’t be trusted?
