"Fatal accidents involving stoned drivers soared in Washington since pot was legalized".

Everyone knows its imposible to crash a car while high on weed. Weed is way less dangerous than alcohol.

Can you read??

I feel way more comfortbale with my driving abilities after downing a sixer than my driving abilities after smoking a joint desu senpai.
O shit waddup!

>hey people should be allowed to whatever they want regardless of the consequences
>we started recording this information now, and WOW its more then when we didnt record anything!
wow, its literally nothing
It's a tolerance thing. 4 years ago I wouldn't be able to kill 8-10 beers and drive now I can. If I take 2-3 hits I can barely fucking think cause I just don't smoke very much anymore. When I was a daily smoker I could barely notice a difference now it's scary as fuck

or you know, driving only when you're fucking sober?
automated cars will fix this problem relatively quickly.
>>73657550
Did the actual number of fatalities increase? Or is it just that a higher percentage of them involve stoned drivers than before?
The article doesn't appear to say, so I'm assuming it's the latter, and therefore fucking stupid bait.

>Correlation= causation
>>73658393
put your automated cars up your own ass, kike
this is such a dis-info article lmfao
this is one of thoes one sided things with literally no evidence or information about the study itself
before 2013 they also didnt take blood for marijuana
the words "ot was involved in 17% of fatal crashes in Washington in 2014"
is so fucking broad, ok so weed was involved, that sentence doesnt even say that "weed CAUSED these accidents"
it literally just says, we tested some people who crashed, and they had marijuana in their system

>driving when youre only sober
You sound like a fag, pussy.
>>73658426
It can, but not in this case.
>>73657550
the research is flawed since THC can remain detectable in drug tests for up to two weeks since someone has smoked.
they need a better way of proving people are high on the day of the crash than a THC based drug test.
I woder how many car accidents would be attributed to alcohol if we could test for its use up to 30 days prior? I'm guessing 90%.
