Tripping & Driving

NOT talking about eating 5 grams and going for a drive BTW...
But what do you guys think about low/threshold dosing and driving?
I drove around LA on Friday night on a pretty good hit of acid. I didn't feel like it was very dangerous... This is assuming you know the potency of your drugs ahead of time...

I would never do it. Once the dose touches my body moving vehicles are a no no for me. Ever have moments on psychedelics where you are having a conversation or holding a train of thought and its all fluid and then POOF you forget where you are or what you were saying or thinking? I wouldn't want that to happen when I'm behind the wheel of my car. Plus the whole time dilation and stuff like that.. I don't know, just doesn't seem smart to me. Bikes are fun though.

It's not worth the risk in my oppinion. Even on a low dose I would NOT want to deal with any potential problems.
I ride my dirtbike around trails on my own property while tripping, but there's no potential to attract cops or kill anyone who isn't myself riding around in my backyard.

Uhh, no. Wreck a bike on a trail, hurt yourself minorly. Wreck my car, I'm out a ton of money, possibly injure other people, other vehicles, police get involved.. you can't seriously compare them.

As said above, BAD IDEA. Any form of impaired driving is stupid. You are driving a few thousand pounds of metal around. If you make a mistake, more often than not people are going to get hurt, possibly die.
It might not be much of an impairment in your eyes, but even failing to make one split second decision can kill people when driving.
I really don't care if you die if you are stupid enough to drive impaired, but it will most likely be an innocent bystander/other driver that pays the price for your mistake.
DON'T DO IT!

just a little tripping = to 1 beer therefore any accident = your fault(even if not). and lets not think about the possible outcome of hurting, or killing someone. simple math to prove a stupid idea. but i know, everyone drives better when theyre a little buzzed or tripping.

But you could easily hit other people on the trail or on the sidewalk... You could easily run into a car and cause a good amount of monetary damage to it... Not to mention that I will most likely walk away from a car crash... You ain't walking away from a bad bike crash.

I just thought this was a 100X better (and more controversial) topic than "toking & driving"... Because everyone tokes and drives.

I've been a passenger in a car while tripping pretty good.
It was amazing, but I wouldn't risk driving in the condition.

ill admit it, i've drove across town before while peaking on several hits of GOOD lsd, while completely out of my mind (should not have been fucking driving, worst idea ever). while it was horrifying, the sense of accomplishment was amazing
it didnt start off scary either, it started off like... giggly and "everythings cool maaan"
quickly turned into WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING once we got on the main roads
other than that i have driven while coming down and ways the bug deal? my vision is pretty well fucked up anyway from psychedelics, if i stopped myself from driving while on the come down i'd have to completely quit driving, all together.
the one thing i know i would not attempt driving on is ketamine. it destroys my vision.

Yeah, I only made this thread because that was the most fun I've had in months! Plus there was no traffic in downtown LA on a Friday night- which blew my mind.
