Explanation:

Assertive refusal skills are the skills that allow you to be effective at saying no to alcohol and drug offers. Such refusal skills made a person to respond actively and rapidly, unless the person will take the dose and may loose the sense of consciousness or may face problems in coordination.  

Here Lindsey should make an assertive refusal by politely denying the company of Gustav who is already in the influence of drug called marijuana. He is unfit for driving. Thus by denying she can prevent herself from abuse or  accident.
