Marijuana use, as indicated by the presence of cannabis metabolites, is not associated with crash culpability among injured drivers, according to data presented at the annual conference of the Association for the Advancement of Automotive Medicine.

sort of a meaningless study. THC metabolites can stay in your blood/hair/urine for a month or longer after use. it's not surprising that someone who smoked on friday night wouldn't be impaired several days or weeks later.

but generally... the dangers of driving under the influence of pot are often overstated. not a good idea, to be sure, but less dangerous than driving drunk or on other things.
