DRUG-DRIVING CAMPAIGNS?

Those of us with more concern for the safety of society than the
ability of individuals to satisfy their wants have two questions which
must be definitely answered: can the ability of those driving vehicles
be impaired by the use of marijuana -- if so, is there a roadside
administerable test courts will accept as evidence of impairment?

The answer to the first question would seem to be yes in that the
"federal government has submitted documents claiming that marijuana
use is connected to increased likelihood of cancer, automobile
accidents, psychiatric problems and drug addiction" (from the St.
John's Evening Telegram) to the Supreme Court.

This being so, the answer to the second must be affirmative as well if
society is to be protected.
