Is it normal for people to drive while high on weed?

I seem to smell this at least once everytime I go out in my car to work or the store to get groceries. At some point during the drive there will be a car, truck, or whatever near me with the windows open that just reeks of weed. Recreational use in NY is fine but last I checked it was still illegal to drive while smoking it. is it normal that this happens everytime I drive now?

    I know it’s sickening. And they drive like idiots too. Trouble is they endanger innocent peoples lives including kids.

      I hate that, too. People don't take driving nearly seriously enough, and seem to be very nonchalant about the possible consequences of driving the way they do. They always seem to think it can't happen to them, or that they're much better drivers than they really are and can handle it.

      The stoners I’ve met don’t drive fast enough to knock a kid over 🤣

        Some of the guys in high school would be rolling 90 in a 45 while hitting their weed vape. Maybe that's just because they were high schoolers, though.

    I think thats probably pretty common, even in my country where weed is illegal. Prescription drugs can be dangerous to drive while on as well... Especially some of them... Yet that's legal and at least over here it says when you look it up that you're supposed to determine on your own wether or not you can drive on your prescription drugs which is just insane really, considering I doubt many people would be able to tell or honestly care either way. Lots of dangers in traffic.

    Haven't smoked weed but its very obvious to me that just about any drug that impairs your reaction or otherwise interfere with driving skills, should not be used while driving. Weed fall in that category

      Weed isn't a drug.

      It'll only cause you problems if you smoke it too much.

    You live in a black neighborhood? Everytime I go to a black part of town the whole parking lot tha im at will smell like weed. Then when ppl walk by in walmart it smells like they got an ounce in their pocket.

    Yep. Especially if you spot them cruising in a Toyota Prado Landcruiser with the windows rolled down.

    I personally don’t smoke weed. I get extremely anxious. But most people I know that smoke, which is a lot, definitely smoke and drive. When I was younger, I was fine doing it too. I learned how to drive stoned. Lol
