CANNABIS AND DRIVING

What evidence does Mothers Against Drunk Driving have that
cannabis-impaired drivers are causing havoc on the roads?

MADD officials ought to read the Nolin Senate report, Chapter 8, on driving
under the influence of cannabis. The report says cannabis users slow down
and adjust for conditions. Cannabis users are safer drivers than those high
on life, concluded the Senate report that was based on peer-reviewed
driving studies from around the world. Does the Justice Department intend
to have police hand out merits to drivers they catch using cannabis or U.S.
Air Force go pills?

Temperance, prudence, justice and fortitude are the four cardinal virtues
test that every law ought to be required to pass. Fortitude is the strength
to deal with the truth no matter how brutal or ugly. MADD would save more
lives and gain more credibility convincing people not to drive when they
are tired. Didn't have a good night's sleep and there you are behind the
wheel on your way to work? You are more of a menace on the road than a
rested person who just smoked a joint right beside you.
