Can geting high have an effect on someones driving?
Answers:
Now, don't get me wrong, because I smoke pot all the time, but seriously, it does affect your driving. THC binds to cannabinoid receptors that are scattered throughout the brain, but mainly in the areas of pleasure, memory, thought concentration, space and time perception, and coordinated movement. If you leave out pleasure, those are the parts of the brain you use the most when driving. If you're going to get high... don't drive! Get a designated driver, or smoke at a friends house if you can't smoke at your own. Hope that helps!
