Anecdotally, I dont think weed impairs motor abilities as alcohol does. Potheads may do dumb things like drive past the exit they wanted, but they dont drive off the road.

That said, driving while impaired is not a good thing, but weed may heighten awareness, while alcohol dulls it.

I don't know about this one, my buddie used to turn into a space cadet after we would smoke a joint, I'd be like "hey Mark... MARK!" and he wouldn't even hear me... just dazing off into space, he did that cr@p all the time i had to forehead slap him to get his attention. :)
