“Adding drivers who are high on weed to drunks and that
crowd is not helping matters any.”
Actually it might. I’d rather be on the road with a bunch of people high on pot than a bunch of people using cell phones. Potheads are too paranoid when they drive, so they won’t be on their phone, and they’ll be paying attention to the road usually, keeping an eye out for cops.
Yeah, they have slow reaction speeds and they may drive 5 mph under the speed limit, but they’re less dangerous than the distracted cell phone users, in my estimation.
You know, by some of the logic being expressed on this thread the Highway Traffic Safety Administration should be ENCOURAGING drivers to fire up a joint before hitting the road. For enhanced public safety and all.
