San Fran to expunge over 9000 cannabis convictions

Then make driving while high the crime. Punish those that commit said crime severely.

I don't disagree. If people really are reasoning that driving while stoned is more acceptable when weed is legalized, then we certainly should do everything that we can to disabuse them of that notion. We need to campaign as vigorously against driving while high as we do against driving while drunk. But enforcement of driving while drunk is a little easier since testing a person's alcohol level is relatively easy. Arresting people for driving while high is going to be difficult until we are able to test for it more easily.

Additionally, the pro marijuana crowd is deliberately junking up the discussion a bit. They are already arguing that people with higher tolerances can safely operate vehicles while moderately stoned. They are already preparing to argue against testing, claiming that a person's THC blood levels aren't relevant to how safely they can operate a motor vehicle. We already have people arguing that there is a level of being stoned at which it is safe to operate a motor vehicle, distinguishing between being stoned and dangerously stoned.  That's ludicrous.

Here's an article where a guy actually entertains the notion that it's OK for some people to drive while stoned.
