Of course, the largest flaw with any sort of marijuana-based study is that the effects of marijuana on the user vary based on the strain and THC content. The authors admitted that the level of THC content in Maastricht’s strains of marijuana tend to be around double that of the US.
Unfortunately any real controlled studies are going to be difficult as long as Marijuana remains such a vilified topic, which results in studies like this being used as ammo rather than another point of data.

A specific semi-common irrational opinion I've noticed with the growing percentage of states to legalize marijuana: The mentality that we must change regulation in order to keep 'stoned' drivers off the road (be able to issue DUI's). It's my understanding that marijuana had a negligible impact on the motor-cortex and reaction timing wrt operating a motor vehicle. Many professional athletes testify to using it before performing some of the most coordinated, reaction timing dependent physical activities of anyone on earth. DUI's were a result of the fact that drunk people tend get in more car wrecks, especially fatal ones.
