The Grass Is Greener on the Other Side: How Extensive Is the Interstate Trafficking of Recreational Marijuana?
Recreational marijuana will soon be available to nearly one in four U.S. residents. The potential for interstate spillovers and negative externalities as a consequence of these unilateral legal changes has attracted attention from policymakers across the political spectrum, including the U.S. Supreme Court and attorneys general from both parties.
Early Evidence on Recreational Marijuana Legalization and Traffic Fatalities
We resolve those challenges by using a synthetic control approach. Focusing on Colorado and Washington, we create a control group by choosing weights for states that have not legalized marijuana to match key variables in the prelegalization period, including testing rates for drugs and alcohol, trends in vehicle miles traveled, urbanicity, macroeconomic conditions, and preexisting trends of our outcome variables.
