Cannabis use as a risk factor for causing motor vehicle crashes: a prospective study.

TL;DR: A responsibility analysis to determine whether drivers injured in motor vehicle collisions who test positive for Δ‐9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or other drugs are more likely to have contributed to the crash than those who test negative found no evidence of increased crash risk in non‐fatally injured motor vehicle drivers.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of child safety restraint legislation on child injuries in police-reported motor vehicle collisions in British Columbia: An interrupted time series analysis

Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Police seldom document drug involvement in drivers who were in a crash after using cannabis, other recreational drugs or potentially impairing medications, and this finding raises serious concerns about the ability of the police to effectively enforce current drug-impaired driving laws and public health officials' continued reliance on police crash reports to monitor the prevalence of drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of rates of opioid withdrawal symptoms and reversal of opioid toxicity in patients treated with two naloxone dosing regimens: a retrospective cohort study
