Yeah...It’s bad enough that we have people in their 70s, 80s and 90s driving around with all kinds of drugs in their systems, and now you can add marijuana to the list of things you’ll find in the bloodstreams of the elderly in America.

I’m a little dismayed by your apparent obsession with cannabis. (I currently don’t use this substance)

If someone hurt someone in your family while high on that particular drug I understand but don’t necessarily agree.
Back in the 60s and early 70s (when I was in college) Pot smoking was riding a wave of popularity. I dare say i can’t imagine more stoned pot heads today on the roads than at that time.

Yes people crash cars and kill people today as yesterday on drugs. Alcohol probably more than any other. It should be a crime to drive while intoxicated (and is) no matter what the substance you’re taking.

I don’t necessarily think pot should be legalized yet for recreational purposes. There should be studies done (rehashed actually. It’s been done before) to determine if cannabis is the proper way to go to help relieve pain and eye pressure problems.

Currently I can take various types of prescription opioids and after reading the label I am only cautioned to see if I feel “ ok “ to drive. If I buy marijuana via state prescription I lose my constitutional right to keep and bear arms yet not with prescription opioids.

This whole thing needs to be thought through a heck of a lot better.

>>Umtil a potheads drives straight at you and your family.

My observation, FWIW, of MJ-using folks who I’d consider likely to be involved in a traffic accident - is they typically are also using alcohol.... heavily.

No problem dropping a dime on their arse if they refuse to listen to reason and insist on driving, either.

Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.
