Marijuana use alone is not associated with higher odds of car accidents, according to a new study by researchers who looked at drivers who visited emergency departments. In fact, high self-reported acute cannabis use was actually associated with lower odds of a crash. Alcohol, meanwhile—whether used by itself or combined with marijuana—showed a clear correlation […]
In a prior study, the researchers also assessed driving ability during a simulation, and notably they found that daily cannabis consumers had an average five times the THC concentration in their blood after the 30-minute mark compared to occasional users—yet the latter group “showed evidence of decrement in their driving skills, whereas that wasn’t statistically significant in the daily users
They aren’t cherry picking anything. They are pointing out the current legislation doesn’t know what the hell they are doing. They specify daily users don’t suffer the same detriment recreation users do, that’s a significant diversion from previous assumptions (passed of as scientific studies).
The article summarizes multiple different studies that are hyperlinked within……
Feel free to read the studies yourself and educate yourself first if you want to nitpick the information.
For non-daily users, yes it apparently does, and you are currently being a prime example of that, your critical thinking is severely lacking in this article comprehension.
Funny enough this “garbage article” even explains how one isn’t a perfect study since it was relying on people to be honest.
Further on they clarify……

And
Can be a difference of 0.1 whatever, however you want to skew it
It’s a toilet-paper article
Who said cannabis fucks up your critical thinking skills lol
