Does smoking weed affect your driving?
I love smoking weed and I try not to drive while I’m doing it. However, I’m nervous about driving on weed to pick up a friend. My friends says to play it cool, but does weed smoking when you’re driving actually affect you?

Smoking weed affects your driving in many ways. Not only are you primed for a
DUI
, but you also put others at risk. When you smoke weed, your driving is affected by:
- Lack of good judgment
- Poor reactions
- Driving with emotion rather than reason
- Distracted driving
- Blurred vision
If you’re going to smoke weed where it’s legal, your best bet is to get a ride from a sober friend or get a rideshare service.
