"Until intoxicated with marijuana and drunk together", especially concerned about the consequences

"People who drink marijuana and drive" have become on the roads besides facing drunken people driving along the way.

or driving while under the influence of drugs” because it does not fall under the Traffic Act, and marijuana has been canceled as a legal drug previously.

So even if you can quit marijuana from the drug.

But the psychoactive substances in cannabis can't be cancelled.

This substance is called

Delta-9-Tetra-Hydrocanabinol (THC) has a psychoactive effect, the consumer is drunk like drinking alcohol.

and then cause

in terms of severity depending on the amount of exposure that enters the body.

and individual response conditions

what's even more shocking

according to the question, “Children can buy, there are no prohibitions,” possibly because of Thai society, even though the “government” has issued a warning.

The status is no different from alcoholic beverages, so it is believed that some people are probably secretly selling cannabis-infused beverages to youth.

It tends to accumulate and increase the amount of THC in the body more and more.

“It can stimulate a euphoric and joyful effect.” In the end, it will cause intoxication, no different than drinking alcohol at all.

The problem is that

What will be followed in this cannabis unlock?

"Teenagers will come together to mix up and drink more cannabis-infused beverages" for the sake of having more intoxicated driving on the road.
