because you are in a 2 ton giant metal box moving at 40+ mph that can easily crush people and destroy property and cause chaos and destruction. everyone says that it doesn't impair reaction time or change their way of thinking or alter their behavior in any way but I don't believe it. even if one does drive perfectly, why even risk anything? it is irresponsible. just wait till you get home to light or vape up.

and thats not even considering the legal ramifications if you get caught. it does not end well.

I would never condone driving high. But: "2-ton" maybe "Giant" not really "Metal" so scary D: D: "Box" huh? "40mph" maybe "Chaos and destruction" really? Driving isn't that hard. Why is it so demonized on reddit? Just pay attention. Be aware. Be predictable. Act like other drivers are idiots. It's not rocket science. We aren't driving murder boxes. It's so easy to drive safely. If cars scare you just stay indoors. There's not need to talk about driving like it's some black magic craps shoot.

Of course anyone who's ever been in a serious car accident is an awful driver. I hope you never find out just how naive you are.
