Read a fucking newspaper sometime you moron. Smoking Pot Doubles Risk of Fatal Accident Stoned Driver Gets 3 Years in Alaska Highway Death of Woman Pot used by Perris High teens killed in crash Now shut the fuck up.
If you've ever been one to smoke far more than you should over any extensive period of time, you would know that eventually you get to the point where one joint/blunt/bowl/whatever just doesn't do it anymore. So you end up moving on to two, until you get the point, again, where that just isn't enough to feel like you used to. Then three, four, etc. Why does it happen? Because your body builds up a tolerance to the effects, as a result of continuous usage. How many non-regular users have smoked with a group of regulars, and felt like an idiot because they were bouncing off walls, or extraordinarily paranoid, or couldn't stop laughing, while everyone else was relaxed, having normal conversations? Or fallen on their face trying to play basketball, while everyone was hitting jump shots? There's a reason this happens. If you smoke enough, your body will adapt to the effects of weed. Including "slow response time". Now, don't mistake my argument to be that of, "anyone can smoke weed and drive safely". IMO, that's not true. And if you drive dangerously impaired, you should be held accountable for your actions, just as if you were driving drunk. But if you smoke regularly enough, I fully believe you can technically be high and still very capable of driving safely.
If they drive twice as careful but have instincts four times more fucked up then they are still half as good as they should be. When you drive you have to be alert, Marjiuana doesn't exactly help! PS And I'm on the "legalize Marjiuana" band-wagon...
A study by the British Medical Journal published in 2005 indicates smoking pot and driving more than doubles your risk for a fatal accident. Studies indicate that smoking marijuana triples your response time while driving. Smoking pot severly limits your motor skills. Not to mention the myriad of stories I found with a simple google search of fatal accidents caused by someone impaired by smoking pot. So ya, it happens. And ya, you are smoking some shitty weed if you think you are some superhuman pot smoking wizard who functions better when hes high.
That's just a parental scare tactic. The dealer would wind up losing money by throwing in free drugs, and the moment he stops lacing his bud the customer would know what's up. Also, you gotta be fucking retarded to not tell the difference between being baked and being ripped on the harder stuff.
If you don't have some loss of functions(motor skills, speech, reaction time, etc...) then you are smoking oregano and not pot. Please try again.
As kids or firt time users? You know not everyone is a drug aficionado or expert. Sprinkling a lil bit of coke and charging 3-4 times what the weed costs is not a loss. In San Diego you can get a ounce for $35, compared to NY where it's hundreds.
As if I'm going to take advice from a bunch of stoners. You are the only one sounding like an idiot in this thread.
They might "think" that they are driving more carefully the same way that when I am pissed I "think" I can dance. Not just that, but dance well. What you think and what is real are often two very different things.
Stupid pro dopers asinine arguments against science, based on “when I’m really stoned…” only bolster those who say this shit should be illegal.
