When it comes to cannabis my rule is, it depends on the person and how much you take. I didn't drive for like up to 24 hours after consuming edibles, cause how new I was to it, and I still give myself that same amount of time regardless what someone else tell me I should do cause everyone is responsible for their own action when it comes to driving.
They drove great 😂
Omg where do I sign up .. I’ll smash the tests
I would drive the same as I do without. Never had a car accident and 50 years old
this is a joke …they need to do this study with heavy long term users and see if affect them not some high skool girls
10 mg?. Try 250mg. You won’t even notice the deer
Imagine if they discovered pot gummies made one a better driver,you know that would get buried.
This s*** is stupid I'd rather be high or rather somebody be high than drunk…. Big difference
Add me to the test
I don’t think I have ever driven a car sober in my life
I guarantee I drive better high then you do sober.
When I’m not high I’m rushing to try and get somewhere where I can get high and that’s the most dangerous time.
And yes I use edibles while driving.
Participants who dont regularly consume Marijuana……. They wouldn't take actual stoners. So they are controlling the results.
Briv all i see a woman using the sim >.>
It's legal gummies, so it's only between 5-10 mg, what a joke 😆
I xan do this np
Sign me up for the free edibles and BeamNG they won't like how I can drive simulators better when ripped.
Why are there no videos about other drugs like opiates/ssri's on this channel, surely they also alter people's abilities to drive? Oh wait those are the sponsor's 😂
Jesus Christ dude shave your face
To the untrained sure they could mess you up but my best driving was on gummies, even more when I play F1 racing games with wheel and peddals I could play on the hardest settings and was more focused, now that I'm sober I play on medium and get into crashes all the time
The more you know…
Y'all never watched a Gran Turismo driver after couple bong rips! They lock in and drove better than when they're sober! 😂
Im not even watching. Dumb study cant believe some granted money for this
They affect everyone differently, my ex couldn't drive because she would be to afraid of leaving the house.
Research shows edibles enhance driving performance lmao 🤣
How to launder grant money 101.
Quit playing with the wisconsinites 😂
I don't drive
I eat gummys all the time, I'm 76, I used to smoke it but quit 6 years ago and I eat the eatabas and all is well !!
Gawd is this stupid
10 mg don't do nothing
This is a waste of time take LSD and do the test
Omg the ones from the government don’t even get you high
There are much more devastating societal ills than this to spend the time, research, and money on.
They should do a study driving around with a bong trying not to spill the water with one hand on the wheel and one hand holding the bong on your lap.
Wow. The commenters have nailed it. Where is our "grant"?
Where do I sign up?!
Depends on the person taking the edible, some might fall asleep at the wheel, others might drive better under the influence. Tolerance also plays a big role. Pretty well the same scenario with alcohol. The effects of impairment will depend entirely on the individual brain and how it handles the stresses created by the drug or alcohol.
10 MG isn't anything if that's what they gave them. Not going to have any real effect
Anecdotally, edibles affect driving much less than smoking. Something about the pathway in which it’s absorbed maybe
Zero impact wxept fir safer driving
