Fine. I’ll say it and take all the downvotes. It seems like every other car has a cloud of weed smoke coming from it. I’m all for legalization, but a large segment of the population seem to equate legalization with legal to drive while smoking.

Your entitled to your opinion man and I agree. It’s no everybody but it’s certainly a few, especially road ragers. Don’t worry about downvotes, a bunch of people here downvoted me and I was just defending myself!

Honestly that makes so much sense. Hadn’t thought about it. Been hearing from stoners my whole adult life that they smoke while driving to work/school grocery store etc, even before legalization.

But now that it’s legal, people must feel even more confident lighting up while they drive, completely ignoring the impairing effect of cannabis, I’m pretty common most of these folks would know not to drink and drive as well.

Ya as a medical patient this really frustrates me to see. It's incredibly selfish, idiotic, and dangerous. While I get Murphy and the state was trying to protect drivers against unwarranted searches and potential "profiling", taking away the ability to rule out active smoking makes pulling over and punishing these irresponsible assholes much more difficult.
