Should Cannabis Be Regulated Like Alcohol? (lemmy.world)

In my opinion I don't think that's the right solution. I think cannabis is closer to coffee.

To add to your point: I once saw a TV show where they got drivers to smoke weed and drive a basic obstacle course, They presented stats saying drunk drivers were (iirc) 6x more likely to crash, while cannabis use was associated with a 2x higher likelihood to crash. So, while it is technically safer, it is definitely not safe.
