“…One difference between Fink et al’s study and ours is that, unlike Fink et al, we only examined differences by legalization at one time point. Similar to our findings, Lensch et al (2020) found that daily or almost daily users living in states with legal recreational sales were less likely to report DUIC compared to those living in states without legal recreational sales ( Lensch et al, 2020 ). Unlike our analysis, however, Benedetti et al ( Benedetti et al, 2021 ) found no significant difference in DUIC by legalization.…”

“…They found an increase in DUIC over time, with a larger increase occurring in states that enacted medical cannabis laws during this time period, compared to states that enacted these laws before or after the analytic time period. Lensch et al ( Lensch et al, 2020 ) found a higher prevalence of self-reported DUIC in states with legal recreational cannabis sales than states without them. The study also found an interaction between cannabis use and legalization, with frequent users living in recreational states being less likely to report DUIC compared to similar users living in non-recreational states.…”

“…These findings are consistent with the policy-based difference in the present study; however we did not control for potential confounders or baseline differences in the outcome. Unlike Lensch et al we did not find that self-reported driving after marijuana use is more prevalent in states that legalized RM [13]. A possible explanation for this discrepancy is the difference in policy dates used in either study: Lensch et al used the date on which commercial sales of RM were legalized, whereas we used the effective dates of RM legalization.…”

“…An alternative approach to study relationships between marijuana policies and driving after marijuana use is to use surveys that collect information on selfreported behaviors and attitudes. However, relatively few studies have used self-reported data for this purpose [11][12][13]. Previous studies have explored differences in self-reported driving after marijuana use or driving under the influence of marijuana based on demographic factors and the presence of per-se marijuana laws, which equate impaired driving to a threshold of detectable THC in one's system [14,15], however they did not consider recreational or medical marijuana policies (RM and MM, respectively).…”
