What I've been told (and yes, this is in no way legalese or personal experience) is that the medical marijuana users don't feel the need to worry because officials truly don't want to waste their time on them. They're willing to risk it because they make sure to keep only negligible amounts so that if they are arrested their punishment will be light. But again, this is what I've been told by friends that do use legally over on the west coast...I don't know how educated they are as to the letter of the law.

ETA: I will say as a cautious person I wouldn't smoke it even with the license. Unless it is legalized by the federal government, IMO even if the risk of being arrested is small, it isn't worth it. But I've never really been a risk taker. The three I know who do use it with a license think the benefit is worth the risk.
As a Chemical Dependency Therapist, I realize this. What I'm saying is that some people don't care how "bad" their trip is or they wouldn't try some of the drugs they try. If people were more afraid of legal consequences, they might try something that is legal but, also gives them some sort of trip.

In fact, it makes me wonder why Sally D isn't illegal in all states the way that marijuana is. Either way, I don't do drugs and I don't advocate for others to try them. I've seen too many lives ruined by experimentation and it's pretty sad.
