Mobile Marijuana Advertisements - Not good for youth!

Mobile marijuana advertisements are prohibited under California law. Licensees operating in the state are required to affix their advertising and marketing to a building or permanent structure. That’s because the law stipulates any “advertising or marketing placed in broadcast, cable, radio, print, and digital communications shall only be displayed where at least 71.6% of the audience is reasonably expected to be 21 years of age or older".
