What a tangled web we weave when we decide to decide “how much is too much” when it comes to driving.

Here’s an idea.

If you want to drink, then drink.

If you want to smoke, then smoke.

If you want to drive, then do neither.

Draconian? Perhaps.
Practical to enforce? Very much so.
Practical to follow? Very much so.
And in the end - the fairest to the largest number of people.

My now passed uncle always claimed the most dangerous animal on the planet was a 16-24 year old female with a driver's license.

My sister-in-law, from my first marriage, thought that men should give her the right of way because she was female. I was riding with her when she almost killed us all because she pulled out when the other guy had the right of way. She was so pissed that he didn't "behave like a gentleman" and let her go first, she ranted for about an hour and nothing any of us(me, my then wife, my brother-in-law(her brother))could say would convince her she was wrong.

BTW, if you are wondering, my wife died after 21 years of marriage, just saying that to avoid the a**hat remarks that I have gotten before when commenting on being married twice.

They have them all over Mi too.

Mi has been doper card state for quite a few years, since 2006 I think.

They have been shutting down the dope stores locally for selling dope to anyone that comes in without even checking cards.

This guy had his store shut down and was selling dope out of his house.

In the general area around a small town of less than 30,000 there was 18 of the ‘medical’ dope stores. It was obvious to anyone who was going in and out of the stores, and the vast majority are young and healthy.

That explains it then. Thanks. I wasn’t aware that Michigan also had medicinal marijuana outlets. I looked and see that there are now 20 states + DC. Michigan joined that list in 2008.
