Car & Driver
June 1980
Volume 25, Number 12
Title: "Puff, the Dangerous Driver"
page 43
The conclusion was that driving while high is bad, but there was 
practically no evidence to support this in the article except opinion, 
pretty obviously created to pander to the prejudices created by the 
authorities. Compared to the previous driving and drinking test 
conducted by the same magazine two years previously, there was *very* 
little degradation of lap-times or driving ability.
The similar test previously conducted by Canada Track and Traffic had 
similar results except that they did not gratuitously come to similar 
conclusions about "dangers," perhaps because of the lower level of 
scare-propaganda extant during that period in canada.
