The regulation itself lays it out in further detail: Deliveries may be made only in person by enclosed motor vehicle. Cannabis goods may not be visible to the public during deliveries. Cannabis goods may not be left in an unattended motor vehicle unless the vehicle has an active alarm system. Vehicles used for delivery must have a dedicated, active GPS device that enables the dispensary to identify the geographic location of the vehicle during delivery. Future delivery drivers of California, take note, too: The regulations ban you from being stoned while making a run, as Daily Dot notes. The new rules could inhibit some drone delivery startsup from getting off the ground, Daily Dot reports.
