EARLY TRAFFIC TUES REMINDER
However you’re spending 4/20, make the choice to not drive impaired.
Impaired is impaired - whether is alcohol, marijuana or anything else. Slow reactions, poor judgement, and driving don’t mix.
Plan ahead! Have a sober driver, ride-share or stay put!

Kids or not it's getting the paul walker treatment lol hahahahahaha. And fuck all you Sally bitches who want to complain about this lol cause that's all you are bitches lol hahahahaha.
YPD drives worse than anyone out there. They break more traffic laws in a day than most do in a lifetime. Stoned drivers are safer than your whole department on their best day. Maybe you should worry about when qualified immunity applies and stop driving like the rules don’t apply to you. I have been driving high for 24 years and have a better record than anyone in the department. You are the criminals and you know it. Eat a dick!!
