A comment on Amazon’s answer to delivery driver shortage: Pot smokers. Parent comment

That’s bullshit. Someone rolled their car into my front garden at 70+ mph in a 30 mph limit on it.

The only good thing was it was at 3AM so there was no one around on a normally busy street to get wiped out.

And your whole attitude of irrational justification of it says you’re probably not capable of making a rational judgement about whether or not you should drive.

Anecdote is not data.

That’s also bullshit. This went into the stats here. Thus is data.

Since when is asking for data considered bullshit? So far, you’ve only provided anecdotes.

I assume you know what the parent comment meant when talking about “data”.

Don’t get me wrong - no one should drive while impaired, period. But offering anecdotes in lieu of data is generally not helpful.

No they weren’t. Apologists everywhere.
