CHP OFFICER KILLED BY STONER

by Bob Walsh

A California Highway Patrol officer was killed in a traffic incident on Christmas. The officer was tail-ended on the Nifty Nimitz in Hayward by a man who was both drunk and stoned on pot. I grant you the alcohol alone might have done the job, but still the whole "If it's legal to use it's OK to drive while using it" is not necessarily true. In fact (if I remember the law correctly) the new January 1 CA recreational marijuana law specifically exempts people from smoking while either a driver or passenger in a motor vehicle.

Since we all know stoners are clear-thinking and socially responsible it should all be OK, shouldn't it?
