The people of this state recently passed the medical marijuana law. I am a little concerned about the ramifications of people who can legally smoke for their chronic pain and still maintain a driver's license.

People with chronic pain would never pass a drug test. What if they have an accident and hurt someone while under the influence of a scheduled Z drug? What is the difference between that and someone under the influence of alcohol?

I don't have a problem with the law, I just don't think that people thought it through, especially the state. Yes, you can have medical marijuana and still drive? Come on, something is wrong with this.
