ON THE ROAD, POT SMOKERS ARE AS DANGEROUS AS DRUNKS

We all know the ramifications of alcohol use and driving.
Unfortunately, there is no roadside test for pot. If people understood
that pot smokers are are as dangerous on the road as alcohol users
this call for legalization would continue to go unheard.

I have no problem with THC being used for medicinal purposes, but I
am suspicious of those who insist it must be inhaled to be effective.
I'll accept this the day a roadside test for THC is available and the
penalties are equivalent to those for drunk drivers!
