As cannabis legalization becomes more commonplace, legal states find themselves confronted with the conundrum of laws pertaining to driving with open weed containers. These laws are often vague and open to interpretation, caught up in a perplexing gray area far from the concrete guidelines that shape open container laws for alcohol.

The idea of smoking marijuana to overcome addiction may read less like “fighting fire with fire” and more like “out of the frying pan and into the fire”; whatever the case, blazing is involved. But there’s actually a substantial amount of research backing the claim that cannabis can aid in battling addiction to alcohol and harder drugs and, yes, this research goes beyond your roommate who used a glass pipe to help him toss out his last pack of Marlboro’s.

If you regularly keep up on weed news, you’ve probably heard a bit about the new Netflix marijuana strains that were available last weekend as part of a promotion for their original comedy series Disjointed. It’s a highly creative marketing strategy for pushing a TV show. If only that level of creativity had been applied to the show itself. While it’s always a welcome opportunity when a show attempts to normalize the use of weed, Disjointed may not be the best example of this, sadly.

In early 2016, news outlets started lighting up with the acknowledgement of a handful of U.S. based companies that allowed, if not outright suggested, getting high on weed at work to help move past creative blocks that hindered productivity.
