DRIVING CONCERNS
I have read some of the articles on your "Don't Drink+Drive" campaign
over the last month and have been dismayed at seeing no mention of
drugs.
I believe that the consumption of any drugs like cannabis etc, in
whatever form, has an effect on one's perception of angles,
distance and speed, which will radically affect driving
capabilities.
The use of these drugs is quite widespread these days, I understand,
and I just wonder whether publicity about their effects should be
added to that of drink.
