  • Some studies suggest that heavy cannabis use may be linked to higher risks of fatal motor vehicle accidents, and possibly certain cancers, but the evidence remains unclear.
  • There is a need for long-term research to better understand the potential health impacts of sustained cannabis use, especially as users age into middle and older adulthood.
