This is the one time it doesn't surprise me. I would love to take a hit or do a gummy anytime before driving in rush hour traffic here. I don't, but it would really help me.

Really help you what? Drive impaired?

One hit or a small gummy won't impair you. Just like having a beer or two and being under 0.08

This seems like wishful thinking. My understanding is that drunks often don’t recognize that they’re impaired BECAUSE they’re impaired, but with alcohol there is a legal standard and a way to qualitatively measure blood alcohol levels. There is no legal standard as to what level of marijuana causes impairment, nor is there an effective way to measure it. It is basically left to the user (whose judgment may be impaired) to determine how impaired they are.

Is literally everyone smoking marijuana and why can’t they wait until they get home? I don’t see people taking swigs out of vodka bottles everywhere.

Now imagine how many people -- including drivers, plus food and health care workers -- who are high as kites on scentless weed vape and weed edibles! It's scary.

One, it's not true. Two, why is it scary? Has there been a dramatic increase in crime or traffic accidents as a result of this made up phenomenon?

I watched my mother die a long, slow, agonizing death due to emphysema.

People shouldn’t be smoking anything.

Yes. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9318699/

Thus, the combined effect of legalization and retail sales was a 5.8% increase in injury crash rates and a 4.1% increase in fatal crash rates.

Yes. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9318699/

It's an estimate and not conclusive. Also, do you know the difference between causation and correlation?

It's the result of a statistical model, so not a correlation since the model was predictive. But hey you're the expert. Do your own research.

Certainly you're the only one who understands correlation vs. causation. The authors of the study and the editors of the journal it was published in don't know anything.

So it doesn't prove what you were trying to prove. I mean, it says it right there in the link you posted FFS.

They do. It just doesn't say what you think it says.

Smokers are setting themselves up for lung problems. Lungs are made to filter air. I don’t want to breathe that stuff either.

On the beltway, the people driving the cars and trucks ahead of you are smoking weed.

But that’s Ok now because its been legalized.

Obviously, that's not ok, since they are driving impaired. Just don't pretend that the smell is dangerous.

Neither are cigarettes, but we still regulate where people can and can't smoke.
