The difference I see is that MOST ppl who drink enough to be over the limit still want to drive even tho they are impaired... Ppl who smoke have no desire to get behind the wheel.

Nailed it. Alcohol makes you underestimate your impairment while cannabis makes you over estimate.

and that's what makes alcohol so dangerous... people actually start believing that they are not impaired by it.

See the difference is even tho I know I can still drive I DONT.... most ppl cant overcome their pride and still want to drive. I was just stating that on a closed course Id put 100 dollars on it that a 6pack of 16s wouldn't effect my driving.

I'm just poking some fun... don't mind me.

although generally speaking it is in my opinion quite an accurate thing to say, that most people who drink think they can drive just fine.

its been proven that alcohol affects your motor skills and your reaction will be greatly impeded. thats just science. thats what its made to do. itd be like me saying i could smoke meth (i dont) and take a nap... just not in the cards

100% truth... BUT it takes different levels of everything to effect ppl. And I can promise you a 6pack will not effect my driving. 12pack yes 100% will.

Thanks,

I'de be a liar if I said I never drank and drive.........

But reality, when close to home has a way of changing your thought process.......

Some of you guys are much younger than me.......if you are sub thirty, you will be expereincing things in the next 20 years that you never dreamed could happen to you......

The death of my grandfather was the first of such life changing experiences for me......I was 31........

I am not intending on lecturing.......not my style..........
However, the facts are the facts.........

What other ppl do isn't in my control. Although my reasoning for my post this morning of the video was to prove that Mary Jane far less effects ur driving.
