      You also shouldn’t drive while high though.

      Plus the PSA is not for you. It’s for anybody who is reading you and could incorrectly assume that driving while high is okay. It isn’t.

        It’s “use responsibly”, the phrase you are looking for. Definitions of “high” are poor. Tests for “high” are poor. If your are impaired, don’t drive. Like every other impairment.

          If you are high you are impaired, and the feeling of being high might be hard to define, but it’s not difficult to recognize when you’re starting to feel it. What are you arguing against?

          Sure, and you can also drink alcohol responsibly. But we’re not talking about responsible use of substances. If you are high, you’re impaired, just like you said, and that’s all I’m saying.

      Tolerance doesn’t affect the impact of being high. It impacts how much THC you need to consume to feel a certain high. Comparing to alcohol, a woman with little tolerance coming in under 100lbs could be blitzed while a huge guy with decades of building up tolerance could be fine after drinking the same amount.

      Driving while high is a problem.

        Given that PA still has a zero tolerance policy in place I’m going to refer back to being treated like a second-class citizen, all while you wouldn’t be able to produce accurate statistics on the matter. Just your opinion.

        I was talking about marijuana. That sort of recklessness isn’t there.

          I’ve got no problem with weed or driving high responsibly. But your argument was that people can be trusted to act responsibly and I was refuting that.
