That is great that you are not driving under the influence anymore.
It shows that you care about your own safety but also the safety of other citizens![]()
[QUOTE=HeckaTrebeka;269885]I would like to point out that I have driven under the influence of alcohol before. Marijuana as well, but on different occasions. I can say from first hand experience, that driving while stoned caused me to be even more cautious of my surroundings and my speed had always stayed at or below the speed limit
..... We have to understand that the degree of tolerance in some individuals is greater compared to others as well as the quantity used. Therefore, what may not impair your abilities does not mean that others will react the same way as you. If everybody would react the same as you while driving, marijuana would make better drivers.(It can be added to the positive uses of Marijuana)
…Thanks for the internet links that you sent me. I heard about hemp,too and its different uses in different areas. The articles are interesting. This topic is very controversial, and I stand up for personal views based on my volunteer experience, friend’s experience, the media ,and articles. I am not trying to create negative rivalry, but I just want to express my point of view....You probably know that there are going to be 2 sides when you first posted this controversial issue . It is an interesting topic, I just stand up for what I think is right in my eyes.
[QUOTE=HeckaTrebeka;269885]Driving under the influence of alcohol is a completely different experience. I took greater risks and sped often. I would be so much more comfortable driving next to a person stoned, than a person drunk.
.....Just one quick question...How did you record clearly and precisely the differences between drugs and alcohol if you were under the influence of these 2 drugs anyways. If a second person would have witnessed you driving under the 2 effects, it would have been more accurate in my opinion.
[QUOTE=HeckaTrebeka;269885]I do not condone driving under either influence. I am just relating personal experience with what I had done in the past. I no longer drive drunk or stoned. Neither experience involved any hard lessons or anything, I just don't.[
…..There have been some VX members that have lost close family members and some that have been involved in accidents because of people under the influence of alcohol....you are lucky, you have not had to learn the hard way...but It is a positive sign that you don't drive while under the influence of any drug anymore.
