Getting a face full of cannabis smoke.

Much better to imbibe it in the form of a bhang lassi (happy milkshake).

Missed many a train in india after one !

Slowly legalizing it over here, for medicinal purposes, esp. But some states are just allowing you to smoke it outright. They are actually planning a pot farm near me. Colorado, Washington, Oregon, and Alaska allow it recreationally, and Illinois allows medicinal use, and decriminalizes use and posession

I can't say I have noticed it much in traffic queues but I have noticed drivers clutching dirty great vaping pipes and emitting clouds of vapour smoke.

I think it's quite a nice smell to bump into. If only car exhausts were fitted with some magical device that made all their fumes smell like cannabis smoke

In SE London, I wiff it from passing cars more then one can imagine.
Almost on a daily basis.

Altough I've noticed a drop off since the old bill started promoting the new road side drug tests. That or the appealing wind and rain has dampened the scent.

Old kent road is the worst and a predominance of commercial van drivers.

It's one of lifes little luxuries, catch the whiff quite often walking through Birmingham city centre.

On my commute to work I regularly pass a teenage lad riding a bmx having a last joint before going to work.

Its about time more employers did on site drug testing.

You would probably find that drafting would suddenly become quite popular.

I'm no expert, but I understood that unlike alcohol (which is processed quickly by the body) most "street" drugs linger in the body for a quite a long time. So it's very difficult to develop a test for current intoxication, and very easy to develop a test for having indulged at some stage over the last few weeks.

Here's an article about how long THC derivatives stay in the body...

I have no idea what level of THC might affect one's ability to drive.

Why?

If his job is something incredibly tedious like washing up dirty plates in a kitchen then the only way to get through a shift of that, at least in my experience, is to be really, really stoned.

Obviously not a good idea if you are driving/have to engage with people though.

Or made the work environment more appealing/attractive.

He works for the NHS as he has his uniform on.

Maybe he washes plates in the hospital canteen?


Sorry, now I'm just being needlessly pedantic.
