Wonder where the funds for that study came from? Interesting to see the reactions from this one.

Lol!
Sort of like saying it's safer to play Russian roulette with a 7 shot revolver than with a 5 shot. I think It's still stupid as hell and a good chance someone will get killed.

I have to agree as a former drinker and smoker.

Stupidity causes the most vehicle accidents, but there isn't a law against driving stupid.
The test for a Ga DL is a joke.

^^^^^^^^^Me, thinking I was driving while stoned. Atlanta could use a lot more stoned drivers and no drunk drivers....

While I would not recommend either (don't smoke and never drive after two drinks), the results of this test are too obvious regardless of the source. Ask any cop that is capable of differentiating, without prejudice, between the two and has worked patrol for a decade plus.


I'm betting the use of cell phones causing deaths has far surpassed both alcohol and marijuana.
