How can you be charged with 11379A not having been arrested for possession or sales?

You can be charged with California Health and Safety Code 11379A for the transportation of controlled substances even if you have not been arrested for possession or sales. This statute specifically targets the act of transporting narcotics, regardless of whether you were caught in possession or selling them. Law enforcement may have evidence, such as witness testimony or surveillance, that indicates you were involved in transporting drugs, leading to charges based on that activity alone.
