Answer 1

Any person intoxicated with any substance should not drive.

Vigilance

Answer 2

Will you be able to get into university not knowing the difference between here and hear?

Remember, there are impaired people everywhere on the roads.  Impaired driving is the biggest killer on our roads.  You could get hit anywhere.  With this kind of thinking, it might be best to just stay in bed and not venture out.

Answer 3

yeah, it definitely impairs driving. it slows down your reflexes, and caused your heart to beat substantially faster than usual. Oh yeah, and to whoever says weed or cigarettes calms you down and keeps you focused, they're wrong. It increases your heart beat, and slows blood flow to your brain, and it completely screws up your hand-eye coordination.

Also, people smoke weed at every college, it shouldn't stop you from going. That is one of the reasons people go to college in the first place.

Answer 4

I really don't know if you will do well in the university after mizspellin so many words.  I'd say weed impairs you a lot more than cigarettes, and in the long run, if you don't get in a car accident, weed will cause lung cancer for you. so liberals who smoke weed really are too liberal to be sane humans.

Answer 5

I think people who do weed, drive slower rather than faster. You are worrying about something that has not happened yet.  It is possible you might get a ding in your car at one time or another. It can be fixed if it happens, but dont worry about it until it does happen. Defensive driving will prevent alot of problems. When you go someplace where there are alot of vehicles, park farther away and walk, that will lessen the chances of someone hitting you car with a door.

Answer 6

Yes smoking weed and such can cause you to do things that can impede you.  It can cause you to think that you have everything going right and you do not even know what you are doing.  So people who smoke it well some stay home and do it in private and some do not.  They go out to parties and it is a choise there.  As for the animals you will just have to watch out and be careful.  And stay away from the people who smoke the stuff.  They can get you in a bunch of trouble and have the law down on you.

Answer 7

weed makes people reflexes slower. so naturally i would think people would drive slower. however it does make some people more focused. which would lead to them being more alert and paying more attention. But not all of them... My friend smoked while driving and hes not a good driver as it is but he got worse when he was high even though since that night he said he has gotten much better. Yes weed does impair your driving and if it was legal im pretty sure it would be illegal to drived while stoned just like drinking and driving is now.

Answer 8

Dude, Paranoid much?

Sounds like you need to stop huffin' the gunja before you get so concerned about what other people are doing.

You probably shouldn't own a car let alone be driving one if you're that paranoid.
