> Drivers on opioids frighten the crap out of me

I don't mean this in an offensive way, but that's just because you're ignorant of the effects.

I suffer from chronic pain and use opioids every waking moment, but they do not impair my ability to drive safely.

Of course "being on opioids" isn't a binary thing; my medicinal dose is very different from a recreational one.
