i've driven drunk, high, and sober (among other things) and i happen to be way more aware of what's going on when i'm high... maybe it's just me, but i honestly can't see how you can compare it to driving drunk! i guess it would be safe to say that each person is different, so maybe it messes with some people worse than others. i'm not saying that you're an idiot, all i'm saying is that there is a world of difference between the two. the only thing that's common is the fact that you're driving under the influence of something... i've read my local newspaper many times (pretty much everyday) and under all the arrests i never see anyone arrested for driving under the influence of marijuana, nor have i ever seen any kind of manslaughter or accidents where it was the causing factor. maybe it's just luck, but the two wiegh completely different on that scale of things...
