In addition, a growing body of evidence also suggests that it is not possible to fully compensate for the impairment while driving, especially after consuming higher potency cannabis products due to its effect on the body which results in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An increased reaction time<\/li>\n<li>Greater difficulty in maintaining the correct road position (increased lane weaving)<\/li>\n<li>Greater difficulty on divided-attention tasks during long, monotonous drives<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3836260\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Click here for more information<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>_________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><strong>Combining cannabis and alcohol use<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using alcohol and cannabis in combination can result in more impairment than when using either drug separately. The evidence also suggests that the consumption of alcohol and cannabis may make certain individuals more prone to risky behaviour and reduce their ability to use compensatory driving behaviour such as slower driving and increasing the following distance between vehicles.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2722956\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Click here for more information<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>_________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><strong>Length of cannabis impairment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cannabis impairment is different for every individual and can be influenced by many factors such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The person&#8217;s prior experience with cannabis consumption<\/li>\n<li>Using high-potency or concentrated cannabis products<\/li>\n<li>The use of specific cannabis smoking practices (breath-holding, deep-inhalation)<\/li>\n<li>The choice of administration route (smoking dried cannabis, eating edible products, applying topical products)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is why there is no standard waiting time to drive after using cannabis.
