One area that the original wiki article could be helped is by making the top summary/intro consistent with the rest of the article. At first blush, the wiki article says that driving under the influence of cannabis is comparable to driving drunk, but the rest of the article seems to contradict that. I wonder if there's a good way to consolidate the conflicting studies in a summary at the beginning. Additionally, this change would allow your number 1 "Effects on driving" to jive better with the information in the header of the article.

Another area where you could potentially add a lot of material is in the "legal standards" portion of the United States. (It seems like this is already your plan with the second header you have - Detection of impairment). I'm not totally familiar with this area of law, but it was my understanding that legal standards are still currently being developed as jurisdictions deal with recently decriminalized or legalized cannabis. Perhaps consider tying in and summarizing news articles? They can speak to the development of the law in this area in an on-the-ground way that nicely supplements the law review articles you found.

A more structural question I have is: why does this article have detection and legal standards as the two categories of information? I'm not really sure what "legal standards" means in this context - is it the amount of THC that constitutes a violation?
