It is typical, as in the link you posted, that they refuse to give the "marijuana only" accident statistics; that is, not mixed with alcohol. And they fail to provide the absolute numbers, only that they "tripled". Well 3 to 9 is tripled. Why the bashfulness about supplying the raw data?

Not only that, but the remnants of marijuana can be detected in the system long after (days, weeks) any effect on driving ability has ceased. Thus, even in the cases where they claim marijuana was present, it may have had nothing to do with the accident!

Maybe they don’t put all those numbers in their new report because it was a Seattle based channel, everybody in Seattle is high on dope, and numbers confuse them.
