I'm a former alcoholic that would use cannabis 2-3 times a year before I started trucking, so I understand where you're coming from. Many of these people have been misinformed and propagandized, it's a sad situation. Thank you for your comment and good luck with your continued sobriety.
Should we be able to use cannabis on our time off?

There seems to be a fundamental misunderstanding, at least in the front half of this thread. The OP was asking a hypothetical. If marijuana were fully legal, and testable for impairment like alcohol would you be fine with it being treated the same? Many seem to believe that because use is detectable by metabolites in the body you're still impaired a month later. As far as I know that is far from the case. I don't know the actual time it takes to become fully sober, but that should be considered in the hypothetical. Personally I've never had much use for mood altering chemicals, alcohol or weed. I wouldn't mind having the opportunity to use it if I could do so safely, though.
Tangential to the question I don't really think that usage of alcohol on a 10 should be seen as appropriate. Maybe it should be allowed, but a lot of people misunderstand how impairment works and drive drunk like idiots.
Again. If you think this topic is a troll, or that because the rules don't currently allow it that it's a dumb thread, then you've fundamentally misunderstood the topic.bryan21384, BillyBobFrank and Gearjammin' Penguin Thank this.
