I'm really getting annoyed, and I need this off my chest.

I'm tired of almost every single thread that mentions a car, driving, fuck even a hotbox story has to include someone pointing out that driving and smoking is dangerous. It's pretty obvious that as a whole, we are divided on this topic. On one post more people think its bad, and the next post more people agree its not.

Please remember that EVERY ONE IS DIFFERENT. If YOU cannot drive while high, then I truly appreciate you staying off the road. When I smoke, I don't get super blitzed to the point of "impairment" and no being moderately high does not affect my driving or slow my reaction time. If anything, I'm reminded to be extra careful and aware of my surroundings.

I live in Southern California, and here a lot and I mean A LOT of people smoke. And I have only met one person who said that they can not smoke and drive (and props to him for being responsible within his own means). If thousands of people smoke and drive everyday in my city alone, wouldn't statistics of car accidents show a correlation by now? The fact is that they don't.

I'm not completely defending everyone, because just like in any scenario, there are specific dumb fucks who ruin it for everyone else. Some people are way too high to drive and do anyway, and that is not ok. But I am a responsible adult who knows my limits and safety of myself and those around me is my top concern.

So can we stop judging each other? If you feel impaired after smoking, don't drive! But please don't discredit my experience as both a driver and smoker and insult my ability to act responsibly for myself.

<3 you all

Edit: And feel free it disagree. If there are any legitimate arguments I'd love to have a friendly debate.
