when u smoke a joint and drive...atleast ur looking at the road, focused opposed to concentrating on typing everything correctly on ur cell fone

i find wen people smoke and drive, they tend to be more cautious of what they are doing its what it does to u. u dont wanna seem high so u do anything u can to not look like it, nd thats by making sure ur not driving like a retard, and on top of that its not even like it affects ur driving in that way anyways...

not saying im justifying that smoking up and driving isright, but i am saying driving while texting is way more dangerous than smoking up and driving

Murder is worse than rape. Are you suggesting by extension that rape is somehow ok and should be ignored too?

Funny that. I find that when people are driving impaired due to alcohol, they also tend to look at the road.

Most also try to drive more carefully because they don't want look like they're driving drunk and thus give another driver on the road cause to call the cops about a suspected impaired driver. They also try to drive more carefully because they certainly don't want to get in an accident if they've been drinking.

And besides, it's not like being just a little drunk affects your driving that much anyways. Thousands drive home from the bars just a little drunk every day, so it must be ok, right? So how is drinking and driving that different from drugs and driving anyways? I guess by your logic both are much safer than texting and driving.

i think alcohol impairs u more than smoking drugs, and cmon those gyus that cars trees around trees have had more than 1 beer...u can smoke a million joints and still be able to drive properly its been proven... and yeah thousands DO leave the bar just a little drunk, little enough to keep their blood alcohol level below the legal limit and still enjoy their buzz...

and popo is just saying your opinion is stupid.

i would have to agree.

don't forget marijuana is still an illegal narcotic, regardless of it's safety, it should come with a heavier sentence than texting or drinking because texting or drinking on their own are not illegal.

-

this is regardless of my opinion that marijuana should be absolutely legal and treated like alcohol. all laws should be enforced and should be logical.

yea well thats why i ssaid its justmy oppinion, because everyone reacts to drugs differently whether it be illegal or legal...not everyone can take aspirin for head aches, some will have negative reactions to it...some peopel can control them selves and ARE able to drive home despite their blood alcohol level up... but u really feel it should be legalized?

of course, marijuana should be legalized for general use. i don't smoke it because i don't like the feeling.

i've met lawyers who smoke weed and snort coke
i've met cops who not only smoke weed, but confiscate it from kids and smoke it

people from all walks of life, want to get intoxicated one way or another.

alcohol wasn't made legal again because it is good for you, it was simply uncontrollable..

marijauna is pretty much the same thing.. you've got at least 10% of North American media singing and talking about how amazing weed is.. isn't it time for it to be legal?

I've seen what coke can do to people.. weed is nowhere nearly as bad and all it does is make organized crime richer, give people who like smoking a hard time, and tie up the time/effort/money of our legal system and enforcers.

i think anyone who gets intoxicated and drives is a moron and an addict. No matter what substance they are taking.

And I don't think anyone will be tripping out on a few pills of aspirin. Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory, it doesn't make people high or buzzed.

As far as I'm concerned let them get fined if they talk on the phone. I never talk on the phone when I'm in the car so I could care less.

I'll order at work just before I go home, or just stop by on my way and order in person.

Believe me, my wife and my brother have tried to convince me many times of how useful cell phones are, especially when you want to make that very important call, and every time I had a comeback.

Personally I wouldn't even need a cellphone, let alone one that I use in the car. The only reason why I have a cell phone is because my job requires it.

this is why cops will go on strike if they are required to do drug tests.

i hate abuse of authority.

above everything, we need a lot more checks and balances, and draconian methods of dealing with them.

we could learn a thing or two from China or mother Russia.

Stay on topic please. This thread isn't about pot smoking or murder.

Blu tooth or hands free kit, problem solved.

The ministry can start selling them and then have popo start ticketing for them like the blue license plate covers.
