Drunk Driving or Driving Stoned – We Now Know Which One is More Dangerous Based on Highway Data

There is data and research to back up the fact that alcohol is much more of a hazard on the road, than weed is. Several reasons contribute to it. For one, alcohol is responsible for around 25% of all fatalities caused by motor vehicle accidents. Data also shows that drivers with elevated blood alcohol concentrations (BAC) have a major increased risk when it comes to crashes. Just a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or more already leads to significant impairment when it comes to reaction time, coordination, and judgment, thus resulting in more accidents on the road.
