Drive while tripping

I read trip reports and threads were people mention that they were driving while tripping.To me,tripping involves hallucinations, alterations in time/space perception,sometimes confusion.
So why do people drive while tripping?My first thought is that they are inconsiderate,selfish,and stupid.Maybe I am wrong and someone can help me understand while people drive wasted.

ya man, it would probally be safer to drive drunk while blind folded
I wouldn't mind if they were only putting there own life at risk, but that is risking many lives, it's people who do things like that whom give us drug users a bad name

It's not cool, but I've done it in the past more often than I'd like to admit. I highly advise against it.

A few years ago, I was doing a lot of acid, and was able to drive fine. But I had quite a tolerance, and a whole lotta experience w/ cid. It was no more difficult or dangerous (for ME, you may be different) than driving stoned, which is also inadvisable (but apparently much more acceptable around here). I can't remember driving on mushrooms ever, but don't doubt that it's happened. I wouldn't recommend driving on ANY substance, but we've all made some mistakes.
p.s. it's really not all that hard, if you can control your trip. I wouldn't do it anymore though.

The reason why it is dangerous is that sometimes you cannot control your trip. I know some of you might be able to keep your composure when you trip, but tripping is a very variable thing. One gram of cubensis can sometimes kick you in the ass in a way that a quarter couldn't. The truth is that most times you can control your trip, but there is always that one in a hundred or thousand or whatever chance that all hell could break loose. You could easily pass out for a second and head on someone. And anyone who drives while tripping is a fucking idiot
Even for you electrode, driving on a strong psychedelic drug is not the same as driving while stoned and you know it. If you had much experience you would know the true power of psychedelic drugs and not mess around with them on the road. I understand it sometimes happens that you must drive while tripping, but if you put yourself in that situation then you wasted your trip, and possibly your life and maybe a family of four's life too.

Although I advise against it I too have driven while under the influence of a number of substances, to this date I've never been pulled over or made any major mistakes while driving tripping. I've driven on 700mg of DXM with a sober person next to me (I hadn't planned on driving, but he didn't know how to drive stickshift), he said I drove well, with a little slower reaction time. I've driven after 7 hits of acid and 30 beers, once again, sober person said I drove fine. I've driven on an eighth of some cubes, but only for about a block, I find it's far harder to drive on mushrooms than other hallucinogens, shorter attention span and less ability to concentrate on the road. I've driven on 2C-I and 2C-B, relatively easy but streetlights play some weird tricks on your eyes.
I never found driving difficult under the influence of any of those, but I'll still warn against it, I know how I react to those substances and I know my limits, I don't know yours.
-------------------- No .sig for me, I'm trying to quit.

rule = we depend on our brain to tell us our arm is connected to our body, that a needle hurts, that water is wet etc, if you add chemicals to your brain that alter the way the chemicals act, the brain can lie, and there is NOTHING you can do about it, if your brain tells you arm has fallen off it you will think it has, you can't correct you brain and tell it it hasn't, i don't think i need to say much more :0)

I realize that psycadelics are very different than weed, but *I* was able to function behind the wheel as well as I would've been able to stoned. I know it's a bad idea and I never did shit like decide, "hey I'm trippin' balls, lets go for a ride". It would just happen that I needed to get from point A to point B, while on acid. And I always made it without incident. And why you gotta be all morbid... I never took out a family of four. I understand that anything can happen, and there could've been some kind of freak accident, but you could also take out a family of four if you were driving in a snowstorm or something. Lighten up a bit...I said I wouldn't drive under the influence of psychadelics anymore, and said in my post that I discourage it. relax...

sure ya did. the other day my friend drove us in a few circles tripping around the block at the bottom of his hill (no traffic, out of the way area) and we listened to zepplin. there weren't really any worries between us. he kept it slow and when we finished we drove up to his house and chilled. maybe it was a little sketch/stupid but i would have not allowed him to drive more than that.

Not trying to get morbid. Just trying to show you what could happen. True, driving is a risk in and of itself but the truth is that being on psychedelics makes you trip. Think about that. Tripping, going somewhere in your mind while driving a vehicle? The driving part is a sad distraction from what is really going on when you trip. Plus, even though you might be able to drive well enough before, you can never guard against a random blackout, or do I have to list all the other things that could happen when your tripping. I understand you have changed your ways and that is good but it really is not as easy to drive on psychedelics as it is on pot.
And I never said you took out a family of four, that is just something that could happen because you were irresponsible while tripping. Don't get me wrong, I'm no saint, I have sadly driven on psychedelic drugs. Even worse, DXM, and I drove just fine for like five to ten miles from my house somewhere and back. I was incredibly fucked up while driving and everything was very slow but I compensated I guess.
Anyway, to answer the post irresponsible, young people who like to go to parties and get fucked up on psychedelic drugs drive on them. Not that most of us don't pass through that phase, but you gotta be careful. More careful than most people are.

So what are you giving me such a hard time for? I said I've done it in the past, it can be done, and I don't do it anymore. You call me a fucking idiot for driving on psychadelics in the past, and then admit to doing the same thing. Dude, you need to just shut up on the matter and keep your hypocritical viewpoints to yourself.

i would personnaly never ever drive whilst triping, i rode in a car once while tripping on about 7 grams of dried p. cubies and that was to much for me to handle, everytime we slowed down and went to turn i thought we were going way to fast to turn and i was flipping out, id crash, no doubt.

What is wrong with saying that. The risk you take in driving while under the influence of mind altering drug is an idiotic thing to do. It is for those who think they are invincible. And in truth, sometimes I act like and idiot but I don't consider myself one. Likewise, we do dumb things but does that make us dumb? No, you are drawing unneeded conclusions.
I don't really think my views are hypocritical, maybe if you think that an idiot is anything but yourself. But I see with the eyes of the world.
I was trying to put us on the same level by telling you of my driving. Sorry for whatever, but you seem a little hostile. Chill out, dude.

I'd say those two quotes are in direct opposition to each other. If driving while tripping makes you a fucking idiot, then doing dumb things makes one dumb. If doing dumb things does not make one dumb, then driving while tripping does not make a person a fucking idiot.

I've driven only once on mushrooms, while tripping on halloween. Me and 3 buddies ate 3 grams each of dried cubies and went to a park. Later that night 3 mexican guys came up and started talking to us about giving them weed. One was in a football jersey and a white mask the othere had a trenchcoat drinking a 40 all drunk and the other a tweaker who was on the run from the cops(during a conversation his friend told him to turn himself in because one day the cops are going to show up to his house and will be in a lot more trouble)Eventually we ended up packing them bowls and they put coke on it. It was a horrible situation and not fun to be in on mushrooms so i decided i couldnt be there anymore and drove to a jacuzzi first because i was freezing cold . Then i drove to a friends house not to far away. Only part i had trouble at was when i turned right onto a major road and saw headlights right behind me coming very fast. But i managed safley

I've done it once on acid. It wasn't a situation where I was like "hey, you know what would be fun? driving!". I was at a rave that got busted and the cops said anybody who stuck around was going to be arrested. I was the only one clear enough to drive (it was weak acid) so I did it. Not smart at all, but luckily it was late as hell and I took back roads. I only saw maybe three other cars on the road and we eventually pulled over when we found a spot we wouldn't be bothered at. That doesn't make it right. But when you're in the middle of frying your brain and you're given a choice between certain arrest or driving under the influence of cid it's a tough call.

my first experienne being in a car tripping me and a good friend ate our mushies(3.5 grams each) we grounded them into powder (usuallyu takes about 30-45 mins for me to feel affects when not powdered) and just washed em odown with some orange juice. we hopped in the car to head for the trippin spot (his house, which was empty, would for for days) which was about 15 mins away. when we were about 5 mins form the house i remember getting intense butterflys, i was giggling like a little school girl, so was he. he was driving fine, we were not worried seeing that we were on the last road to his house, he kept asking me what gear he was in, he couldnt remember or even figure it out.we didnt think the effects would have kicked in so quick, but it worked out ot be perfect timeming, if we were in the car for another few minutes im sure he would have lost contro lof the car lol. the second experience we were coming down from a trip and we wanted to combined the three things we loved the most , a footlong subway, skateboarding and mushrooms. so we drove into down and got some sandwiches and to a skatespot. everytime he would come to a stop sign he would find himself stopping about 10-15ft before the line. it was pretty obvious his perception was changed quite a bit. these experiences were not in a middle of a tri-p or anywhere near the peak, but they were sketchy enough that i could definatly say driving while tripping wouldnt be too smart.

The way I said it does not change that people who drive while tripping are foolish. Is that tame enough for you, no fucking this time. Regardless of whether of not you can see past your limited viewpoints, you are arguing a moot point with me. Why don't you try to answer the post.

in retrospect, i think "man i could drive on shrooms, just some patterns and wavy lines", but when im actually trippin im thinking "there is no fucking way i could drive right now." a couple times i couldnt walk when i was tripping, i had to lean on the wall to keep myselfe up...not a great driving state.

I think you are confused. This has nothing to do with you using the word fucking. Fuck, fuck, fuckity, fuck. You said that anyone who drives on a psychedelic is a fool. You then said that doing a foolish act (i.e.: driving on a psychedelic) does not make a person a fool. So, either doing a foolish act makes you a fool or it does not. If it indeed does, then people who have driven on a psychedelic are indeed fools. If doing a foolish act does not make one a fool, then one who drives on a psychedelic is not foolish. This has nothing to do with me seeing past my "limited viewpoint" (what view point?). This has to do with precision of language. The reason I'm not answering the original post is because it answered itself. The original poster was most likely not looking for an answer, only to say that those who drive on psychedelics are idiots(judging by the way the post was worded). I'm not saying I disagree with that. Driving under the influence is ill adviced.

There is a 24 mile bridge across Lake Pontchatrain between Mandeville and Metarie, Louisiana. One night at about 2 a.m. I was riding back with a buddy and we were both tripping. We were about 17 at the time. This bridge has no exits except the one at the beginning and the one at the end. Anyhow, he kept saying "I think this is our exit" and would start to swerve like he was taking an off ramp. I was fighting him for the steering wheel and then he'd chill for a few minutes then do the same thing. We were in a 1975 suburban. That was some scary shit.
I've probably driven 4 or 5 hundred times on acid/shrooms. This is back when I was a kid and I thought I was invincible. I actually convinced myself that I could drive better on acid than when straight. I remember one night driving down the street and there were animals dashing out in front of me. I have no idea if they were real or not. It was a very vivid trip.
I can recall pulling into familiar places on many occasions and thinking everything was turned around- like the McDs was on the wrong corner and shit like that.
Another time coming across the causeway (that 24 mile bridge) I was a passenger and was huffing on nitrous. The chick that was driving took a hit and next thing I know I'm hearing a big "Boom, Boom, boom". We were bumping into the side rail on the bridge going 60 miles per hour. I came to pretty quick and grabbed the wheel. She was passed out. I couldn't believe she'd grabbed the shit while driving. What an idiot.
I have dozens of stories like those. I was lucky that I never killed anyone while driving tripping or letting someone I was with drive while fucked up. It's a stupid thing to do.

Driving while huffing nitrous = pretty terrible idea. That is probably the last drug I would do while drive. You are lucky to be alive.

Worst idea in the world is driving a motorcycle while drunk off your goarde. Bad bad idea. But the nitrous huffing is right there with it I gotta admit. Stupid bitch wasn't suppose to be huffing but I was passed out.

I think what we've shown is that there are plenty of drugs that simply should not be used while driving. No particular order of which ones are better or worse.

i think pcp is the last drug id do while driving...wait a minute...
i have to agree partially with some, i have a freind whom is very experienced and can focus enough to drive perfectly fine whilst tripping, he claims to have once projected out of the windshield as if he were riding on the hood, but i do believe that we were both lucky when we stopped for refreshments and couldnt remeber or figure out how to start his truck(it is kinda tricky) and thenhad a fun walk through town.

ive done it, would probably do it again only if absolutely necessary.
The worst time was on 7 grams of dried very potent cubensis and like 8 or 9 beer. The road was moving back in forth but i had 3 sober ppl in my car that said i drove fine, not one swerve or nethin

only time i drove while on shrooms was after a trip and i was more just feeling really stoned, but it's so much fun. i wouldn't do it while getting hallucinations though becasue i don't know how well i would be able to handle that.
Being driven while tripping is an experience everyone should try though.

This summer me and my friends went camping up north and I ate a muffin I baked with about 2g of weed inside, (this was the first time I was to try eating weed). About 30 min after ingestion I started to feel the weed come on nicely and that's when everyone decided they wanted to go up to the lake and do some cliff jumping. Since I drove up and the other cars were full, I decided I would get behind the wheel which in retrospect was not a great decision. It was a good 20min drive going 80-100km/h trying to keep up with my friends in the cars ahead and I was already feeling extremely stoned, but the cool thing was that I felt completely in control, I felt like I was one with the car and impressed that I could maneauver this powerful piece of machinery at my will. I have to admit I had a really fun time driving while high, it was one of those exhilerating experiences that I will never forget, but never repeat.

In my opinion is driving on psychedelics just plain stupid, inresponsible and immature. "Yeah, but sober people said I drove fine.." So f*cking what? It's a fact that people on psychedelics (and alcohol) have a highly reduced response time. Nobody can drive properly on drugs. "But people really said I drove fine!" Until a little girl walks over towards the otherside of the road, and your response time is way under normal..
-------------------- "A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'Universe' - a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something seperated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." - Albert Einstein

I've driven toward the end of a trip and it sucked!! Every little detail popped out, every bump in the asphalt, I couldn't remember how long I had been stopped at a stop sign etc...
It's possible...it's stupid.
Whoever said people who do are 'F'ing idiots,' I would wholeheartedly agree. I was one of those idiots and it shall NOT happen again.
Be well

IMO it`s O.K. to take a risk...as long as you make sure you`re the only one who gets hurt if things go wrong. In other words: Don`t fucking gamble with other people`s lives. Take the bus for chrissake !

Ok, there's no way to rationalize or legitimize driving while tripping, so I'm not going to try. That being said, I've driven while tripping a few times. Maybe twice when I was really tripping. Both those occasions were for short distances late at night between my friend's house and mine. On one of those occasions, I realized that it might have been a bad idea, as I just burst out laughing hysterically while cruising down a hill. In fact, I just drove to the pet shop while tripping yesterday to get some fish - but I was only tripping mildly (my tolerance was up from doing 2C-B the day prior to taking the fungus). When I went outside to get into my car, I realized I was tripping harder than I had thought (still only about a 1.5/4), but knew that I could make it. I made it to the pet store and started making googoo eyes at the reptiles and amphibians. Got me some glo-lite tetras, a long-finned zebra danio, and a neon blue dwarf gourami. Now, that might seem incredibly careless, and not without reason. However, I do not believe in my heart of hearts that I was any more of a danger to the public than if I had had a couple beers, or was talking on a cell phone. (I know about car crashes, my brother died in one.) I'll tell you one thing, though, I could drive very well on Ecstasy when I was taking that stuff. And it's not that it just seemed that way. In a perfect world, no one would drive inebriated ever, nor would we ever go over the speed limit. Unfortunately, humans are fallible, imperfect creatures -- like apes in golf carts.

"In a perfect world, no one would..." WTF - it?s about you getting behind the steering wheel while your reactions are slower and you?re distracted by all kinds of things. And not about what would and would not happen in a perfect world. Don?t you get it ? You could hurt or kill somebody ! So somebody who had "a couple of beers" drives as shitty as you do on drugs ? Is this what you?ll say to the guy you crippled for life ? I?m sure he?ll see the logic in it if he thinks about it.

A friend and I split 4 grams (dry) before we hit the road en route to my apartment (an hour drive from our hometown, he was visiting me at school for the night). The shrooms kicked in about halfway there, we smoked a bowl to take the edge off and listened to Dark Side of the Moon the entire time.
the shrooms weren't the best i've ever had but they were damn good enough. neither of us were tripping too hard to maintain control of the vehicle, but we BOTH had to do some steering because it started to rain heavily around 2/3rds of the way there. then the driver's side windshield wiper fell off the car (piece of shit 1986 pontiac 6000 STE) and I had to get a bit of help from my passenger/tripping friend.
we were fine.
since then, i got in my car to go to my dorm from a few blocks away while i was tripping on a similar amount of what must have been better shrooms and I was definitely unable to operate it. so i figured, why risk it, and haven't tried anything like that since.
the original experience was more or less out of necessity. we didn't do it for kicks, nor did we want to/have time to wait to eat our shrooms.
we didn't even really start tripping hard until we got out of the car anyway.

Ive driven on Robo twice..
Ive also driven drunk twice.. which will never happen again.
I must say I made stupider decisions while I was drunk. Robo driving is just ridiculously hard because you have to pay attention to driving.. and thats it.

Last Saturday night,my friend,my cousin,and myself all ate some cubes and I decided to take my couisn back to his house before I felt any effects of the shrooms.My cousin lives 30 mins away from me,but 15 mins into the drive the shrooms hit me like a ton of bricks.I'm sitting there praying to the maker "please don't let me start tripping now".The thing is that I have this huge crack in my windshield and it looks like a big ass spider web and the whole time it kept fucking with me and the tail lights from the cars ahead resembled bright red baby spiders ballooning from the web.Anyway,my point is that driving wehile intoxicated on anything is a dumb idea,however,jet skis and atv's do not apply because I've had good time while doing that and tripping balls.

Man if that bridge could talk....I've been floored while riding across that brisge so many freakin times.Thats one of the coolest places in the world,especially in the middle of the night.If you ever get the chance go to Ruddock,its right off of I-55 north if coming from I-10 in LaPlace.Theres a railroad tressel drawbridge and its usually up most of the time.Really cool place to trip.

Well, the speed limit is a debatle thing... I mean, many many many speed limits are posted from what older cars could handle and haven't been changed or reviewed for newer cars with better performance.
As to driving tripping. It's all been said. It's fucking stupid. It doesn't mean you're always stupid, but while you're doing it, you are indeed stupid. I don't even recommend driving on cannabis, and I am a heavy proponent of cannabis... NORML doesn't even recommend it. Quoted from that link:
Quote:
Policy debates regarding marijuana-law reform invariably raise the issue of marijuana and driving. This is a valid concern. In fact, NORML's own "Principles of Responsible Cannabis Use" invoke a "no driving" clause, stating: "Although cannabis is said by most experts to be safer than alcohol and many prescription drugs with motorists, responsible cannabis consumers never operate motor vehicles in an impaired condition."

I've had to drive a few times while tripping.
On the comedown, trip was basically nil, to get bud and bring the trip (visuals) back
To the ER, so a friend's house wouldn't get raided (friend was bugging out and friend had quite the stash)
Maybe once or twice more, tired + bad memory,
However, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, and it wasn't pleasurable tripping and bringing someone to the ER. One of my 'worst trip experiences ever'.

"There can exist, in addition to the aware self, other hidden systems of control of the organism, which can program thinking, can program feeling, can program action, toward destruction of that particular organsim. LSD(tripping) can release these programs, can strengthen them, and can weaken the aware surviving self to the point where there is danger of suicide or of self-destructive activites." -John C. Lilly The Center of the Cyclone
That about says it. There are things you cannot control, parts of yourself that may want to kill you, that you have never encountered. These can flare up while tripping, and then even though you may have never thought about suicide or running off the road, it can happen out of your control. That is why no one should ever drive while tripping.
-------------------- No ONE wants to know the ultimate TRUTH, as soon as YOU find IT out, YOU want to forget IT. You are everything's way of feeling itself. Happy Schwag, everygodly!

My cars a stick Shift...so i got it turned it on, drove three houses down hanging out of the car. decided theres no way in hell to drive while on shrooms. I pulled over and just decided to explore.
