There is a medical marijuana clinic opening up in my neighborhood and it makes me nervous. And something happened last week and I am not sure what to do because I don't want to create a problem where there isn't one. My friend Jack and I have a mutual friend named Winston who borrowed Jack's car and got into a small accident. Winston told me once before that he has a prescription for medical marijuana for a chronic pain in his leg. He mentioned that he uses medical marijuana every day and makes him feel better doing everything including driving. If I knew that he was going to borrow Jack's car I would have told Jack about what Winston told me. Winston said that the active ingredients in medical marijuana don't cause you to be impaired and it just takes away the pain without being high so he is fine to drive. I am not sure what to believe but I want to get the facts straight and also think Jack should know because Winston could have also gotten into an accident which hurt somebody too.
