What makes you think marijuana is not involved in traffic accidents ?
I don't see where anyone suggested that.
The point being made is that many people who consider marijuana a dangerous and society-threatening substance, consume alcohol, which is also a dangerous substance.

Much of what people think they understand about marijuana is based on misinformation disseminated over generations. Yes it can be abused, over-used, and used dangerously, as can alcohol. But it can also be enjoyed judiciously and carefully, as can alcohol.

Neither one is going away soon.
