Pot Legalization PR: Driving Under the Influence.
Advertisements [?]
I know there have been studies done; I know there are links. But from a public relations standpoint, justifying, in any way, driving under the influence of pot is a shot in the foot. In my opinion, it is important to demonstrate the harmlessness of responsible ingestion rather than the VERY controversial subject of stoned driving. I have been observing various manifestations of this argument from 'pot is safer than alcohol to drive under the influence of' all the way to 'stoned drivers are better/safer than sober ones.' The potential veracity notwithstanding, can we get past the point where people get arrested for smoking a joint in their yard first?
