Yeah, I’ve heard people say they can drive better when stoned. But a mind-altering drug like pot can also make you delusional, believe it or not.
Yeah I have heard those claims—they are wrong on so many levels.
When you are high you actually get “sensory overload”—which is really bad when you are driving.
The driver needs to have focus on the task at hand and should not be distracted by stunningly beautiful scenery on the side of the road (to give just one example).
You can’t drive while high. The problem is everything is in exact moment of time. Memory from tbe now to two seconds ago is forgotten.
For example, when approaching a red light you don’t have any recollection of needing to slow down. It’s a struggle for one second to the next. At least it was for my ‘friend’.
He’s never doing that again.
Hard to get hurt driving 10mph.
