As Jseal touched upon with his point of possession, one could effectively argue that there is NO acceptable amount of drugs your system can contain while operating a vehicle. Not like the FDA's determination that there is, in fact, an acceptable amount of rat droppings allowed in hot dogs. 
I'm not one to promote a police like state where everyone needs to pee in a cup and show their papers when they so much as go to the grocery store to pick up diapers, but auto accidents happen easily enough when people aren't impaired. I don't mind a little random testing.
