	r. v. penno, [1990] 2 S.C.R. 865 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The social concern, common to the "drinking and driving" family of offences, is the severe risk to life, security or property of the public that is posed by persons whose ability to drive is impaired, but who are nevertheless in control of a motor vehicle.
		Obviously, convicting all drivers whose ability to drive is impaired, whether they voluntarily took care or control of the motor vehicle or not, is rationally connected with the objective of ensuring that impaired drivers are off the road whatever their degree of intoxication.
		It leads, for example, to the conclusion that the more impaired a person is, the more likely he or she is to be acquitted of the offence of impaired driving.

		In driving simulator tests, subjects under the influence of pot typically manifest their impairment by decreasing their driving speed and requiring greater time to respond to emergency situations.
