Time Magazine just posted an article (click to read) about a new study on medical marijuana. In the states that have legalized marijuana dispensaries, fatal traffic incidents have decreased by about 9%!
From the article:
Driving under the influence of marijuana seems to be less risky because people who are high tend to be aware that they are impaired and compensate, while alcohol tends to increase recklessness and create false confidence. Also, people are more likely to smoke weed at home or in private, rather than out at bars or other public events that require driving to get to.
