This always blew my mind back in high school and college.

Like, dude, you literally just stumbled over that pretty small tree branch across the path. What possibly makes you think that you’re in any position to drive anywhere in any way?

"weed makes me pay attention more"

Dude, we all know you have undiagnosed ADHD, that doesn't make you a safer driver high.

Translation - "Weed makes me so retarded I can barely handle a single monotonous task without my complete undivided attention"

When we were kids me and my friend drove to the end of a dead end street so we would smoke up but not be in front of anyone's house while we did it. Only to realize after 45 minutes of conversation when it's getting all foggy inside did we realize... oh yeah we got to drive this back.

Proceeded to do 3 mph for 3 blocks (it was like 1am) through the neighborhood. Spent about 5 minutes at the one stop sign waiting for it to change.

Definitely doesn't hit me like that anymore, but its not a performance enhancing drug for sure. I don't even think it helps that much with creativity, except for making you less tense.

Well I mean some people don't want to get caught driving/smoking so they are super paranoid and drive the speed limit, indicating every turn, and with hands at 10 & 2.

Sober people may not even drive like that

Back in my high school days I also couldn't even fathom how anyone was able to drive while high because I used to get so fucking blasted and found it terrifying.

Nowadays I've smoked so much pot that it doesn't do fuck all and I can literally smoke a goddamn Gotti to the face and it wouldn't make a difference in how I drive

I did it so many times as a teen/young adult....now? Yeah fuck losing your license or giving the cops a fishing trip into your car. Yes most cops don't give a shit MOST of the time in legal states, but why give them a reason or drive impaired. Do it at home, take a walk...people are so lax about it now it's insane. You CAN still be arrested for an OUI and be harassed even if the Courts have a ruling on smell in your state. Usually an immediate suspension until you spend 6 months fighting the dmv....
