whoever said marijuana is a hallucinogen is retarded. i would drive while stoned and never expect to see a hallucination
Whoa there, kimosabe. Marijuana most definitely has some effects that can be correctly described as psychedelic.
'Hallucinogen' is a misnomer, really. Drugs called this are actually more correctly called 'psychedelics', because they are more likely to produce DISTORTIONS in perception and cognition, not full on realistic experiences of things that are not objectively there. Drugs that produce true hallucinations tend to fall into the category of deliriants or dissociatives, not psychedelics, though there are exceptions, and the lines can blur.
The bottom line is, marijuana is definitely capable of distorting one's sensory perception and thought processes, which can make a an inherently dangerous activity like driving even more dangerous.
I've driven stoned. I can't in good conscience recommend it.
