Biggest danger from weed is secondhand smoke. A drunk might crash into you with their car and then beat you up for being in the way.

Drunk I think maybe I can drive, stoned I know I don't want to drive. So safer for others maybe?

a stoner might get hungry, eat too much taco bell and destroy your toilet a few hours later though.

I’ve seen a ton of people argue that it’s fine to drive after smoking and how it doesn’t affect it. With alcohol everyone knowns it makes you a worse driver, with weed you sometimes get people who say it makes them better.

Seen plenty of people try to make that same claim about alcohol.
Also I think the reduced inhibitions often causes people to become overconfident in their ability to drive safely.

I think alcohol us much more universally known as making you shit driver than cannabis is.

Don’t do it anymore but driving after bud means more chill and sometimes more paranoia, so generally I drive calmer and more thoughtfully. Alcohol I know impairs, especially with overconfidence and that meant it is a counterproductive no no in my books.

I’m a huge proponent of legalization, and I think weed is great, but you’re objectively a worse driver while high. Please don’t.

I’ve had to drive while under the influence of marijuana a couple of times and can say that is bullshit lmao.
If you smoked a little, you’ll probably be fine just like if you drank a beer or two. Smoke a lot though and you are going to get distracted easily, spaced out, etc. Anything other than totally sober will make you a worse driver unless it’s something like amphetamine
