Is it safe to drive on shrooms when it is not during rush hour and after trip peak.

Depends what you consider safe. I already have two DUIs and im only 19 so I won't be doing it again but sure it's probably just as safe as driving while you really drunk. I had to do it one time. I was watching the fireworks display at the beach on the fourth of july I didn't think I would still be tripping after it was over but I was. The hardest part was figuring out how to get out of the fucking complicated parking lot I almost had a panic attack in there. Once I got out of the parking lot it was all smooth sailing.

It's probably not the best idea.

Once my husband and I tripped on shrooms for a good 6 hours. Afterwards, we thought, "hey, we're hungry and we stopped tripping...lets drive to IHOP!"
BIG mistake...it was one of the most scary experiences of my life. Our minds weren't really tripping anymore, but our perceptions were still really altered.
Everything looked alien and either too big, or too small. We couldn't gadge distances and the road kept appearing like it was swallowing us. We ended up getting lost.
I will *never* ever* ever* do that again!!! I feel so fortunate that something bad didn't happen because of my ignorance/stupidity.
I recommend you don't drive on shrooms.

I think most peple would consider it a bad idea. I'm not the best person to answer since I dont even think you should drive if you're really tired or sick tho. But if it wasn't a high dose then I'd say its pretty safe even tho you should drive anyways.

the only safe drug to drive on is cannabis if you ask me. If accident happends and someone , not you, gets killed you will get a hard time living with yourself.

what about amphetamines? i could probably drive better then...
i don't have any sound advice to add though since I've tripped with the sole intentions of just driving through the forest before, and have drove from friends houses to mine numerous times tripping my ass off, like while peaking on 5g. it was only when other people weren't on the road at like 2am so I wasn't putting others at risk really but still kinda stupid though.

Its not safe to drive while under the infulence of pretty much any psychoactive drug no matter the dosage.I wouldn't push your luck. But hell Ive done it before. Ive drove while tripping on a lot of different types of psychedelics. Definetely wasn't smart and Im lucky.

Yeah its really not worth it. If some dumbass crashes into you and Dies and the accident is HIS FAULT you could be charged with MANSLAUGHTER if you are proven to be impaired. Not to mention the thousands upon thousands of dollars it costs just to get a normal DUI. Just find a friend to drive you around I know its easier said then done.

driving on mushrooms is cool as long as you aren't anywhere where there's any traffic. Out in the wilderness in my friend's jeep it was really fun. We just rode really slowly looked at the scenery and listened to some bluegrass. It was awesome. One of those old school land cruisers, back when they actually made cars out of metal. Really fun. Traffic, though.. ugh..
use discretion.

I think driving would be all the better on amphetamines since it really boosts your concentration.
Driving on shrooms... hmmm... it sounds like it would be fun on acid. My friends were on a car trip and they had all eaten microdots/acid and the only bad thing that happened to them was that when they changed cd's in the cd player (while the volume was on full blast) that distorted radio frequency sound would come on in full blast and sometimes it would be on a while before they found another cd to put in... it really freaked them out. They also said the road stripes dividing isles would go all snaky patterned and tunnels seemed to eat them . It sounds intense but fun!

come on people don't drive on shrooms! It isn't safe and you could hurt yourself or, even worse, other people. even if you think you're 100% in control you're not really.
Don't drive while tripping

Unsafe, i drove once after about 5g trip, 3 hours after it i thought i was ok to drive. I was at a friends house and my plan was to go to another friends house, on the way there i went past a long straight line of traffic cones at some road works, the cones were in a straight line but to me they were in a zigzag line, it freaked me out and i went straight home, which was nearer and ditched the car. Another time i left the same friends house after a 3 hour trip and as soon as i left i new i should have turned back but there was nowhere to turn so i kept heading home on a road i must have used a 1000 times. It was dark and i ended up thinking i was on the wrong road, i made it home but it was like a bad trip all the way there. Never again...

Driving on drugs is very stupid and those who do so hurt all of us who have great respect for mushrooms and other entheogenic substances. Getting caught driving on drugs only enforces the beliefs of those who would prosecute us for do so. And believe me when I say many get caught driving under the influence. That is a ligetimate charge in Califonia and can also include aspirins and/or coffee as under the influence. mj Grow up.

I couldn't have said it better. You put yourself and other people at risk. It's just being selfish.

Not safe. Its more difficult than driving on LSD. (Not safe either) Edit: I dont know why you would be asking this question unless you have never tripped before. You know you shouldnt drive when you're fucked up and being on shrooms is one of the weirdest, most alien fucked up's you can be.

I'd never do that, I don't want a cop pulling me to the side of the road and talk to me, even if one of my flasher's light is burnt. Talking to cops under the influence of any drug is extremely scary and almost everytime you end up getting caught.
