it always goes back to that stupid argument that "well they allow this so they should allow that". comparing marijuana to cigarettes is like comparing first trimester abortion to killing a 12 year old child.

cigarettes are far less intoxicating than marijuana do do not inhibit motor skills. they do not pose a threat to anyone other than the smoker and those around them but laws are making it where people can't smoke indoors and such.

while marijuana might be less dangerous for your health it makes you more dangerous to others health because being high is on par with being drunk. and dont even pull the crap out like "oh pot smokers just sit around" because we all know thats bullshit.

recap

marijuana is less physically detrimental than cigs but impairs physical abilities(like being drunk)
marijuana is as intoxicating as alcohol but acts much faster in smaller quantities

its more dangerous than both because its like getting drunk with 1 beer.

the only thing a cigarette has in common with marijuana is the way they are both burned and inhaled. nothing else is even close to the same.

Yeah the fact that he is driving more cautious makes him a real threat to society. Watch out for those crazy stoned fuckers putting on their turn signals early, driving slower and being all around more cautious, they are definitely more dangerous behind the wheel then anyone who has been drinking.

I'm not sure where you got the idea that he said it wouldn't be safe with other drivers, They added another driver into the test and even had him do an emergency stop right in front of him.

you don't even understand what hes saying. he said its harder to drive so he has to put more effort into it and really focus and concentrate just to drive normally. he was more cautious yet performed the same which means weed impairs driving skill and to be a regular driver you have to really concentrate on what you're doing.

he only concentrates because he knows weed impairs him so we tries his best to not drive bad. if a driver however was like you and thought hell its not like im drunk and just drove like they normally do it would end badly.

even concentrating he admits his speed perception is off and realizes in traffic he would have problems.

@edit


cause on typical streets you just have a driver in front of you to pay attention to right? its not even close to demonstrating he can function in actual traffic its just 1 car with 4 lengths of room to react.

@3:52ish he says with cars around him he would really worry about hitting people.

If he performed the same then it didn't impair his driving... No one can honestly be this stupid. I'm getting trolled so I'm just gonna go ahead and leave this thread

Also I drive stoned everyday and have never killed anyone, got in an accident, or crashed my car.

he admits it impaired his driving dude. he says he has to compensate for being high by being much more attentive and even on a controlled track he had a harder time driving normally.

@edit lots of people also drive drunk and never have hurt anyone or crashed.

well there are different levels of being high we know that. different types of weed get different results as well.

the only legitimate thing from that video is if weed was legal there would need to be a DUI standard for it.

the big thing with smoking and driving is that when your system is clean and you get high the first days high is totally different. its much stronger and your basically a lot more fucked up.

its also the same with a cigarette. if you havent smoked a cig in a week and you smoke a decent one you will get a rush from hell.

in both cases i wouldnt recomend driving. but when the substance has been used a little it doesnt do the same thing as when the first time you used it.
