Anyway, we had a great time playing in the water, chilling on big assed inner tubes, and getting stoned. Walking back to the Jeep she broke her right foot on a jagged rock sticking up out of the ground. She was in great pain and couldn't drive. So I did. I wasn't used to driving it, and being baked wasn't the best time to learn, obviously, but whatever. Ya gotta do...
Anyway, all was cool until we got back on the road. Then we passed a cruiser, and I was fucking crippled with paranoia. It was hard to tell how fast I was going cuz I wasn't familiar with the vehicle and it's throttle response and big-assed wheels, and I was too paranoid to take my eyes off the road and look at the speedo. I should add that I was very, very high - it was good shit. 
It's an anti-climactic story as I got us back safe, but that was the longest ride of my life. Shitting bricks the whole way. I will never do that again. |
The difference being the same as someone who has not drank that often, and has 2 beers and drives. They will obviously have problems if they have no tolerance to Alcohol. A daily cannabis user doesn't smoke and have to lay in bed or can't move. I've seen people smoke enough to put non smokers into the couch where they can't move, juggle with 5 times at a time and not drop them, do back flips, walk across something the size of a balancing beam with no problem, etc.
There was a guy that recorded with hidden cameras during a Fox news segment trying to show that driving while stoned slows your reaction time. He came in and hadn't smoked since the night before. I think 12 hours, and he was at 9 nano-grams. They used a 18 wheeler test simulator for the people to drive on with the big huge wheel. He caught even they Camera man saying that the test was bs, and the stoned people still all passed it more or less. lol
I'd be a lot more worried about people on prescription pain pills etc., causing issues while driving.
