Studies show weed doesn't impair driving. Some have even shown that stoned drivers are actually safer drivers and get in less accidents than sober drivers. The only time I can see driving high as an issue is when you have trouble sitting up, walking straight, etc. For the most part weed doesn't impair your driving to the level that alcohol does. People make too big a deal of it. Obviously there's limits, but most people with some level of tolerance are capable of driving high. It's not really hard at all. It's not at all like alcohol where you unintentionally begin to drift back and forth in your lane. It doesn't affect your balance, depth perception or coordination in the same way. Anything over a 6 or a 7 and you shouldn't be driving. That's obvious. Anything below that is more of a buzz if not a solid, controllable high. It's just pretty smooth sailing. Think about your state of mind when you're high and compare that to when you are drunk. They're not the same. Many people seem to automatically lump alcohol and it's effects with those of weed and they are completely different. They say stoned drivers drive safer because higher speeds seem even faster when you're high. Not to say it makes it more difficult, but from my experiences, you'll start to feel spooked and see it as unnecessary to drive even 5 miles over the speed limit.

The last thing you want to do is get a speeding ticket while high or endanger the lives of others by driving erratically. Sure you can argue that my being high is endangering others, but I completely disagree as do many others. I have yet to get even remotely close to getting in an accident while high and I've found no definitive evidence that driving high (not stoned out of your mind) is dangerous. How many studies have shown that driving drunk can be dangerous? Plenty. How many have shown that it's safe? None. Can't say the same of marijuana. Sure there's studies that show weed impairs driving, but the fact that there is conflicting evidence which goes against that leads me to believe there two sides to the story. Driving buzzed or high doesn't affect you much. Driving absolutely stoned is incredibly stupid. Show me statistics of how many people die each year due to stoned drivers and maybe I'll reconsider my habits. Til then, I'll comfortably continue to safely drive high. So far, I've yet to receive any tickets nor have I gotten in any accidents. It's not about staying away from a vehicle when you're high, but accurately gauging just how high you are and making a smart decision based off that. Don't be so fearful. Don't believe everything you may have heard. Think about how you came to the conclusion that driving high is bad. Did you find out from experience or are you simply going off what you read once or what some person told you? Weed is weed. Alcohol is alcohol. Don't confuse the effects of one with the other.
