“I’m wondering how the pro-pot libertarians spin this damning data?”

You mean the fact that there were fewer fatalities from drivers who were high?

From the article:

“A cannabinoid does not necessarily indicate impairment, only presence in the body. The percentage of fatal vehicle accidents in which a driver tested positive for Delta-9 THC at or above the legal limit of .5 ng/mL decreased from 52 in 2016 to 35 in 2017.”

And this in a state with ~4million people.

A statistically significant (p=0.034) difference. More winning!
