It'll be better for responsible drivers. They can just drive around it easily once they see it, and they won't have to share the road with reckless drivers, because the reckless drivers will have cars with smashed fronts. That's a few seconds in exchange for possibly saving their lives.
And it's not the same as laced weed, because smoking weed doesn't hurt anyone, and laced weed does. Reckless driving kills people, and black brick bins don't. It's the opposite way around.
but weed can hurt you. it wont always. maybe it is unlikely even. but it can. same with reckless driving. if it were 100% chance u would die, people wouldnt do it.
You're talking about weed hurting the smoker, but drag is talking about reckless driving hurting helpless bystanders. Those aren't the same.
