PROCEDURES NEEDED FOR POT-IMPAIRED DRIVERS

Re: "More marijuana research needed," editorial, Sept. 13. The editorial 
on legalizing marijuana is good as far as it goes, but omits one of the 
most important issues: driving under the influence.

It makes no sense to legalize pot before we put in place laws and
testing procedures similar to those we have for driving under the
influence of alcohol. This has proven to be a big problem in Colorado
and is compounded by the fact that many users combine the use of
marijuana and alcohol.
