[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Simple data should settle this debate once and for all. Since MD legalization have road deaths gone up significantly? What about DC? Very simple.[/quote] Changes in Traffic Crash Rates After Legalization of Marijuana: Results by Crash Severity https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35838426/ Results: Legalization of the recreational use of marijuana was associated with a 6.5% increase in injury crash rates and a 2.3% increase in fatal crash rates, but the subsequent onset of retail marijuana sales did not elicit additional substantial changes. 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. Across states, the effects on injury crash rates ranged from a 7% decrease to an 18% increase. The effects on fatal crash rates ranged from a 10% decrease to a 4% increase. [/quote]
