    You don’t need to argue. You just need to accept that every time you do that you put your life, and the lives of the people around you, in danger. And that’s simply a fact.

      Yeah look I think there might be a difference between one Panadeine forte and hard core opiates that have people nodding off.

      Certainly, it’s a lot better than vaping two caps before driving and nine times out of ten it’s just a paracetamol anyway

      My friend, in the UK you can literally buy Panadol both with and without codiene over the counter at a pharmacy

      They have said multiple times they use the without for the most part, which is just paracetamol (acetaminophen).

      The UK and elsewhere don’t have the same problem with opiates as the US does.

      It’s not an offense to drive on medications unless it impares you, in effect giving the police reason to stop you from driving if impaired by it and legal means to prosecute you if you cause harm due to the imparement.

      That also means I could drive whilst high from my cannabis prescription if there was no imparement.
