As everyone knows, drinking and driving is bad because your motor skills are impaired when you consume alcohol. If you have difficulty walking, you cannot reasonably expect to be able to command a vehicle through traffic without incident. You are unable to respond as quickly in a crisis and your vision may be blurry. Driving drunk is thus stupid and it is clearly dangerous. Nevertheless, many argue that smoking marijuana is NOT detrimental to coordination and therefore that we should not feel uneasy about allowing pot-smokers to drive. These people contend that since marijuana makes you paranoid, pot-smokers will pay even closer attention to the road than they would while sober, and that therefore they may even be BETTER drivers while high than otherwise!
some idiot told me this: While on the subject of accidents, intoxicants don't necessarily cause them. Some drivers out there simply do not belong on the roads. The focus should not be placed on intoxicants, but rather the drivers themselves. I've seen people drive better drunk or high compared to other people who are perfectly sober.
