If someone who doesn't smoke much gets blazed, they're going to be a danger to others on the road. If said person ODs on edibles, he's going to be a danger to people on the sidewalk, too!
Having looked at this from many perspectives, it's an issue of having to protect society from the worst case idiot scenario.
Here lies the problem , different people have different tollerances & different drugs have different effects on people , how can you protect against those with weak tollerances or who are an ignoramus under normal conditions , then add weed & they freak out ? Only hard core users dont suffer lessoned motor skills & impared brain function , casual users are greatly effected .
So does that mean i can never drive?
Ive been smoking mj for twenty years i dont even remember what a buzz feels like. Im high all the time now i smoke to relax my muscle spasms so i can drive
.
You cant feel a buzz & most likely have no imparement from smoking a joint but most people aren't like us , most people dont use drugs every day & build up a tollerance where the chemical reaction dont impare their functionallity .
My wife & i are great examples , she can outsmoke most men i know , on her bad days ive seen her vape a half ounce , eat a half dozen medibles & do some dabs & you'd never know she's high , whereas with me if i smoke a whole joint by myself im stoned , i dont get all stupid & silly but im definetly stoned .
Were both pain management patients , her from Multiple Scleurosis & me from 3rd degree burns , damaged nerves , multiple herniated & damaged discs , damaged vertibre , ruptured dural sak , broken back & over a dozen surgeries & skin grafts .
Im on pain meds & will be for the rest of my life unless neuro surgery science grows ten fold anytime soon so im stuck taking narcotics , some days i can take 2 80 mg Oxycontin & 2 8mg Dilaudid & you'd never know im on a lethal doseage of narcotics , i managed multi million dollar construction projects for years taking high dose pain meds & performed flawlessly , i can think & function at normal levels as long as i can control the pain from taking over .
My wife is prescribed 30mg Roxycodone 3 x daily & if she even takes one of them she's stoned , the medicine makes her fall asleep & she's groggy & not able to focus or concentrate .
Its about tollerances , my wife should never drive after taking her pain meds but she could drive perfectly after a half hour vape session , me now i would be able to drive a car perfectly or ride a motorcycle without incident after taking 80mg oxycontin but after smoking a joint no friggen way , my reactions would be altered .
Most peoples action & reaction responses are effected when using any drug while driving & that makes them more dangerous than sober drivers , saying its ok for stoners to drive while stoned is the equivalant of saying its ok for a fully functional alcoholic to drive while under the influence .
dont shove herb up your wazzo ...
