(C) distortion of speed and distance perception
although the other two can also be dangerous, they are much easier to overcome than the latter.
That being said, driving high is much easier and safer (though not recommended) than driving drunk. Upset depth perception is more easily compensated for than no motor coordination. |

i would chose C. depending on how much you smoke your senses get messed up. you hear louder you see double and everything seems to be moving in slow-motion. i thing i wouldn't be able to start the car in the first place. what does B has to do with driving? /:) |

Actually you would probably be rather surprised to learn that our very own NHTSB has done multiple studies on this subject. In the most recent study they concluded that the adverse affects of driving high really weren't that much. Some of the studies even alluded to the fact that those "impaired" by cannabis were actually safer drivers. I highly recommend that people do a little research before the generalize. The links below might be a little eye-opening. |

all of them, but barely any accidents in the US have been caused by marijuana alone so its not actually that dangerous do drive while high. |

Probably all of the above. When driving, a person shouldn't be taking any kind of drug or substance including prescription medication that causes impairment of the senses. |
