The debate on the Highway Code
Speaking at “Five Minutes”, the column of Bruno Vespa are Rai UnoMatteo Salvini responded in kind to the rocker of Bitch.
“I remember weeks of controversy, with Vasco Rossi and the intellectuals and those who “want to smoke a joint and can’t drive”. It’s falsebecause alcohol and drug tests date back to opioids a few hours earlier, not days earlier. Everyone at home is still free to do what they want, I would avoid it,” he said on live TV.
Then, he pressed, underlining the benefits which is bringing the new Highway Code. “Have saved 43 lives compared to past years it makes me endure accusations and controversies with serenity. Italians are using more prudence“, he commented with satisfaction.
Previous attacks

The last time he had done this had led to the reaction of the Minister of Transport who had invited him to speak with her families of accident victims caused by driving under the influence of narcotics. This time, nervous because his words had been travisate from Salvini, said: “I’m not there. I never said that you can drive while drunk or under the influence of drugs. I don’t think so, I’m not like that stupid“.
In his first attack on number one Carrocciothe one who started the controversy between the two on this matter, had said: “Minister Matteo Salvini has made sure for your good that if you have smoked a cane even a week earlier and get stopped you can be arrested immediately and comes to you retreat the patent for three years”, a nice and good attack that had warmed the spirits between the two and had triggered the back and forth that went on for weeks.
As already done previously, the singer-songwriter also accused the leader of Lega to do”propaganda on people’s skin” and of having worked for “an absurd propaganda edit of the old law which already provided for the withdrawal of the license for those driving under the influence of cannabis”.

It’s a thing unacceptable which should be obvious to anyone,” he says, also explaining how, in his opinion, with the new law, we will end up ruining lives rather than saving themintroducing an “unjust hunting to behaviors, which are perfectly legal, such as the use of cannabis for therapeutic purposes.”
