The Canadian Automobile Association in Niagara has launched the “Do Anything But Drive” campaign, aimed at stopping people driving while high.
A 2019 study conducted by Dig Insights found that 1.2 million Ontarians admitted to having driven after consuming cannabis and 23 percent said they believed that cannabis had no negative impact on, or even improved, their ability to drive.
“The casual attitude towards driving while high is staggering,” said Peter Van Hezewyk, President and CEO of CAA Niagara.
“With the uncertainty of when side effects will kick in, consuming and driving puts everyone on the road in danger.”
