Driving -->after<-- a springtime trip with gf

Hi there Shroomery, just looking to throw some ideas around.
I've tripped around 5 times,last time being in May with my gf. I'm hoping for some opinions and tips on my next trip with my gf in a few weeks time 
To keep it short, we have to choose between tripping at home or driving to the park or woods and having a picnic there and trip. Tripping at home will be very convenient but we won't be able to experience the beautiful scenery.
Tripping at the park or woods means I'll have to drive back(when the effects have worn off) after and there's most probably gonna be other people there walking around.
So what do you fellas usually do in a situation like this? Thanks for any feedback

Lot's of people have talked about driving when they think the effects wore off. Then Whoa!
Find a sober driver.

driving after a psychedelic experience can be hit and miss, but I'd call it dangerous. My worst intoxicated driving of all time was the morning after an LSD trip, and I've driven on heroin, alcohol, etc.
Sometimes even when you're not high anymore it can still be effecting you in odd ways.
I've also had an experience where I went on a hike while beshroomed. It was a small dose so I didn't really notice it as I walked, but then I get back to my car, sit down to drive off and everything starts shifting around all of a sudden.

It is the stress of driving that will bring ou latent effects. Not knowing roads very well, traffic, high speeds. Most difficult time I have had driving was after dosing at midnight and trying to take people home in the morning.

I've driven for a couple hours in an interstate highway 8 hours into a 210ug trip and it was no more impairing than if I'd been stoned.
I'd bet driving on shrooms would be more difficult though, IMO.
I've also tripped far more than you have OP and I wouldn't have done it if I didn't feel confident in the moment.
I'd say don't do it until you're more experienced tripping and would feel confident about it without having to ask others.

Don't drive after. The first time I tripped I drove several hours after the effects wore off and it did not go well. It was worse than driving drunk in my opinion.

Once before I made a 10min drive back with a friend after hiking on shrooms. I thought I was more or less normal but when we got home I realized I was still experiencing some sort of a high still.
Yeah I definitely won't be doing that again.Glad to get so many replies,I like the uber idea ergoticmandala

I can't recommend this but I have driven so much on psychedelics I'm ashamed to admit it. I feel like on lower doses my driving is not impaired as I am hyper aware of everything and I focus my mind intently on driving safely. In some ways I am more zoned than sober, because when you are sober you don't spend all your mental energy focusing on driving safely. Driving on medium doses is hit or miss depending on the point you are in your trip, and driving on high doses is definitely not safe.

I find psychedelics to be in some ways LESS impairing than weed. I will not drive stoned. It puts me in way two confused a state. The last time i drove stoned I drove 25 miles opposite the direction I was heading on the high way and it took me THAT long to notice even though this was a route I had driven many times and should have instantly realized something was amiss.
I seriously didn't notice until I began seeing farms with pastures and horses and I thought to myself "hmmm, I've driven this route so many times and I don't ever remember seeing these farms before".

I've driven on the 8th hour of an acid trip few times. Wouldn't do it during a peak. It doesn't impair me at all really, alcohol is much worse.
I'd say if the weather is good then go for it. It's something different. Make sure you take all essentials with you and definitely wait until effects have worn off before driving. Have fun!
