Drugged Driving.

4/20 – the improptu national holiday for marijuana, and we want to bring about marijuana awareness.  Marijuana has many side effects and health consequences, but today’s focus is on drugged driving.   If you smoke weed for any reason don’t get behind the wheel for at least 4 hours.  If you use edibles, wait at least 8 hours.  Driving sober means no alcohol or drugs.
