I bet this study was funded by government dollars in some way.

Potheads drive 40 miles per hour below the speed limit. That way the cops won’t see them.

I think this is probably because MJ smokers tend to stay indoors and watch Spongebob and eat Doritos.

Medical marijuana was legalized,
therefore alcohol consumption decreased,
therefore there were fewer traffic fatalities. Flawless, unimpeachable logic. Statistics don't lie.
The next step is to mandate that all drivers smoke pot.

If there was any medical value to marijuana the drug companies would’ve extracted and duplicated any money making drugs already.
The whole political scam is to culture a scheme to extract tax money from pot sales.

The next step is to mandate that all drivers smoke pot. Hey, if we all smoke enough, obviously NO ONE will ever die again!

Statistical studies can prove just about anything.

Yes. Pot smokers tend to reduce alcohol consumption or not drink at all. Too many other factors to consider though..
To: Pharmboy
Sounds like a George Soros funded study through one of the most liberal schools in a city known as the drug center of the continent.

It’s called Marinol. They have attempted to do so, but Marinol doesn’t do what smoking pot seems to do.

Marijuana was introduced in the United States in the early-1600s by Jamestown settlers who used the plant in hemp production;I think if this is part of your "research", your conclusions are probably questionable.

It's because drunks don't pay attention to stop signs. Potheads wait for them to turn green.

and a five percent reduction in beer sales ?????? No doubt because of patients switching from "medical" beer to "medical" marijuanna.

I speculate that humans were consuming marijuana in one form or another long before we figured out how to manufacture alcohol.
The reason marijuana is illegal is that it grows everywhere and government hasn't figured out how to get its slice.
You will notice that prostitution is illegal everywhere but Nevada, where government HAS figured out how to get its slice.
I rest my case.

Lies, damned lies, and statistics...
