Legal weed in Leftpondia has been proven to reduce drink and
drug driving.

Is stoned driving better than drink-driving? They're equally
risky and
both illegal (in the UK and USA, and almost certainly also in
Canada).

Ah, of course - if our lords and masters have decided to make
something illegal it must be wrong.

Define "wrong".

No

In that case, your "point" is non-existent.

And your point?

It's obviously too complicated for you, but for a normal person
ought to be more obvious: there is no gain in swapping drunk drivers for
drugged drivers.

Even you ought to be able to work out why.

I have never knowingly taken cannabis products (does this mean I
don't qualify as a normal person?). No doubt you can explain why there
is no gain in swapping drunk drivers for drugged drivers.

Neither category is in full control of the vehicle, of course.

"Full control" is too vague for something inherently non-binary.

The provisions of the Construction and Use Regulations are not vague.
Full control (or the lack thereof, as the case may be) presents no
definition difficulties for the police or the courts.

And perhaps more to the p[oint:

But of course, you know better than the law, don't you?

Are you feeling alright?

I suspect I have better health than you, thank you for asking.

What is your response to this?

Should we ban alcohol?

Smoking weed gives an almost immediate high so you cannot overdose because you will pass out long before you get a lethal dose.
Alcohol has a delayed effect and you can overdose before you know it.
