Secondly driving high has been proven almost 95% of the time the driver is more aware and drives better then he/she would if they were 100% sober...hard to believe? well believe it, scientifically proven.

There is an enormous scientific literature demonstrating the effects of marijuana use on driving. People high on THC (the most active ingredient in marijuana) make errors in lane position, speed, time and distance estimates and respond poorer to emergency situations than drivers who are not intoxicated from smoking marijuana. Effects dissipate significantly after 2-3 hours. Those are simply the facts. You can find more information at the NHTSA website or in Medical Consequences of Alcohol and Drug Abuse, Taylor and Francis Publishing, 2008.

Alcohol and marijuana are both going to impare you while driving if you have been using them, plain and simple. They can pass laws to lock people up if they drive high on marijuana, just like they do with alcohol.
