Know anyone with a disease? Read this

I read that yesterday.

 

Question is. Why is it a thing now?

 

Just because it's now legal in many states thousands didn't just start smoking and driving.

 

I smoked frequently in my 20's and 30's. In that time I was never in nor did I cause any accidents. I don't think that I'm of a rare breed (though some may think so B-) )

 

I did the same with drinking. I don't know why they make such a big deal about drinking and driving.

And, in local news:

 

 

Wilson man admits smoking pot before fatal Porter collision

http://buffalonews.com/2017/06/23/wilson-man-admits-influence-pot-fatal-porter-crash/

***

Buchalski was scheduled to go to trial Monday, when he would have faced a second-degree manslaughter charge that carries a 15-year maximum sentence.

 

Defense attorney James J. Faso Jr. said he had a chance at winning an acquittal.

 

"The (marijuana) levels were extremely low in his system," Faso said. "There was a chance he might walk away completely."

 

But Buchalski had admitted to a Niagara County sheriff's deputy that he had smoked pot about two hours before the July 22 crash, an admission Faso called "devastating."****

 

Lesson here isn't about driving under influence, but that admitting anything to cops is a bad idea. You have the right to remain silent. Use it

He was too stoned to think of that.

You know what's an even worse idea? Killing people.

Good thing you didn't have kids in your 20s.
