What a shitty article. That was fuckin embarrassing to read, fuck me mate

Cherry-picking parts of a study to support your narrative is something stoners have been doing since I started smoking in the early 80s

Repeatedly stating that people who smoke before driving are statistically safe, then quoting your source as -

A study published in 2019 concluded that those who drive at the legal THC limit—which is typically between two to five nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood—were statistically no more likely to be involved in an accident than people who hadn’t used marijuana.

Is exactly the same as saying someone who had half a pint of beer was just as unlikely to have an accident

You're doing more damage to your cause by spouting shite like this

Agreed! I've been a smoker for many years now and a driver for fewer years. I can say with 100% certainty that driving while stoned is incredibly dangerous. No one can argue that it doesn't decrease your awareness and reaction time. All this does is make responsible smokers look bad.
