Best Answer

Inexperienced marijuana users will often have great difficulty driving and should not attempt it. Research with experienced marijuana users shows that it has no significant effect on their driving. They feel the effects of the marijuana but are able to effectively compensate for them. One example is an article titled "Puff the Dangerous Driver" done by Road and Track in 1980. They set up a driving course and had two groups of people drive it. They gave one group increasing doses of alcohol and the other group increasing doses of marijuana. The group taking alcohol was quickly and obviously unsafe on the course. The group taking marijuana actually did slightly better on the course when stoned on marijuana. This is not because marijuana improves performance, but simply shows that it doesn't diminish performance so that they got better with practice.

It depends on a lot of factors; quality of the marijuana, number of times you have used marijuana (a veteran smoker doesn't stay as high as long). My first time smoking marijuana I smoke some high grade stuff and was high for over 3 hours.

That varies from immediately to about 24 hours, depending on your size, gender, how much you drank, and how quickly you drank it.

You can legally drive when your BAC drops below .08. How long that takes depends on high high your BAC got.
