    I thought marijuana didn’t cause accidents?
    Could this be a first?

    Who cares what their name is? A knucklehead is a knucklehead. Red, brown, yellow, black or white.

    I came by around 10:00 yesterday. They were still cleaning it up.

    This was not "near" the Quad Cities, it was in the Quad Cities.

    What's funny to me is, he'd have to have run for at least 30 days so he could test clean, lol. Like, he really didn't think this through... his company knows who was driving that truck....

    Well, they don't call it "dope" for nothing, lol.
    But seriously, I've known some daily smokers in my life that you couldn't tell if they were stoned or not. Some even that own their own biz and are good at it. Many that are highly educated professionals. Not all "potheads" are stupid, or make bad choices. But that doesn't mean I'm defending smoking pot and having control of this much deadly force. The choice is clear in this biz - drive or smoke, but not both.
