It's not safe to drive until you build a bit of a tolerance. Once you are comfortable though it's far safer than driving on opiates prescribed by a doctor, which is legal as long as you use as directed. Marijuana and alcohol are two completely different substances. Apples to oranges. One is a deadly poison that drives people to murder, suicide and renal failure. The other is a harmless plant that drives people to taco bell. Nuff said
