High doses of medicinal cannabis have ‘no effect’ on ability to drive says new study

The researchers measured participants’ control of the simulated car, testing how much it weaved or drifted, their cognitive function, subjective experiences and the CBD concentrations in their plasma.

They concluded that no dose of CBD induced feelings of intoxication or appeared to impair either driving or cognitive performance.

Dr McCartney said: “We do, however, caution that this study looked at CBD in isolation only, and that drivers taking CBD with other medications should do so with care.”

A 2020 study, also by the University of Sydney, found very low doses of vaporised (vaped) CBD, an uncommon method of taking the drug, were also safe.
