If the teens were drinking and ran over the 5-year-old on a bike, how successful would they be arguing that "alcohol had nothing to do with it"?

But you think they should get a pass because it was marijuana?

I don't care "how successful" you think they would be. In the scenario shown in the completely idiotic commercial, the girl was at fault, plain and simple.

It amazes me this mentality that alcohol or pot removes any and all ability to avoid a wreck, and if one occurs while the driver was "high" or had been drinking, then the smoke or drink was automatically at fault. It totally ignores the thousands of wrecks that are caused by completely sober people, and the thousands of times an "intoxicated" person drives fine.
