U. Of Toronto Study Shows Marijuana Not a Hazard!

The safety hazards of smoking marijuana and driving are overrated, says University of Toronto researcher Alison Smiley. 
Recent research into impairment and traffic accident reports from several countries shows that marijuana taken alone in moderate amounts does not significantly increase a driver's risk of causing an accident -- unlike alcohol, says Smiley, an adjunct professor in the department of mechanical and industrial engineering. While smoking marijuana does impair driving ability, it does not share alcohol's effect on judgment. Since alcohol has worse effects on a person's ability to function then, why is alcohol legal and marijuana not?
