CA has had defacto legalized pot for over 20 years. Yet it is one of the safer states in terms of highway deaths.

MJ laws have gotten looser nearly everywhere in the same time period, yet highway fatalities have fallen to historically low levels.

That doesn’t mean looser pot laws are responsible for the increased safety, but it does make it hard to claim these laws have made the highways more dangerous.

That’s because most driver miles are spent going three miles an hour three feet behind someone else’s bumper :)

This thread is direct contradictory evidence to that statement. It seems to be very easy to make that claim.
