The smart way!


Stoned is impaired and you take the responsibility for yourself but the question is what if someone died because of the fact that your senses were dulled by any form of drug.
As for being in an accident when changing radio stations or on your mobile (using a mobile while driving is rightly illegal) , the driver could be charged with careless driving since they aren't paying attentiion to driving .
Buy Mitsubishi , they have a solution for changing radio stations, the radio controls are built into the steering wheel.

A good driver *DOESN'T* toke and drive. If you want to stay out of trouble, KEEP THE WEED OUT OF THE VEHICLES!!!!!!!!!!!

Anything you do outside of the privacy of your own home is subject to scruteny.

If you insist on transporting *ANY* weed, lock it in the trunk, and go directly from point A to your home, get it out of the vehicle, and take it inside. Toking while driving is INSANE and a real good way to get yourself and/or an innocent killed or injured.

Think about driving down a street while impared, and a 3 or 4 year old jumps out in front of you from inbetween a couple of parked cars, and you couldn't react in time because you were blazed.... Could you live with the knowledge that you killed a child because you were stoned??

Use your head for something other than a hat rack.

I don't care what people say about Marijuana and driving under the influence of it but I can drive perfectly fine high. The only time it's a problem is when someone is with me and I have a tendency to joke around too much and not pay attention to driving. But as far as actually driving, I can drive extremely well. Just last night, I had smoked 8 bowls in my truck (hotbox) with various people across the night. I was on my way home, it was raining, and I was going about 40 mph down this road. I saw a huge like beaver, I guess it was a beaver. The thing was huge, one of the biggest animals I've ever seen on a road besides a deer. I saw him when I was going 40 and he was maybe 12 feet in front of me, I slammed on breaks and stopped about a foot before hitting him and he scurried off the road. That goes to prove that my reaction time is the same high and sober, if worse, it's so small it doesn't matter.

IMPOSSIBLE !

x² ÷ 20 + x = Overall stopping distance in feet.

x = speed

For example: If you are travelling at 30 mph

30² ÷ 20 + 30 =

(30 x 30) ÷ 20 + 30 =

900 ÷ 20 + 30 = 75 ft.

This is a work of complete and utter fiction. None of this ever happened.

Let me clear this up... first things first I don't drive. I'm 18 and I have no interest in driving at the moment, I prefer to get buses and trains. But from the ages of 15 - 17 I worked for a guy who would sell anything from 4 to 15 ounces of bud a night. Every single day he would get calls and write them down, then at 5:30 we would start work and finish at 12:30. He couldnt drive because he was banned so he got another guy to drive whilst he took the calls and I would be given the stuff to go into houses, get the money and bring it back to him. We used to have a load of trouble of the police practically every single day, when you are operating in the center of the second biggest city in the country every single day in some of the shadiest hotspots you get noticed a LOT. Anyway this one time we went to do a llate drop in a supermarket car park, I got out the car and went into the other guys ride, sorted him out and went back to my boss. He shouted out the window for me to get in so ran and hopped in and he said that the old bill had just slowly gone past the entrance to the supermarket and saw me moving between the cars. Our driver sped out, I looked right and no joke the cop car was speeding like fuck, it swung round the mini-island and came back round towards us with blues and twos blaring. We started reaching speeds of about 70 or 80 on these tight little roads whilst getting 8 ounces of stuff into a white carrier bag. When it was all in I told the driver to stop the moment he pulled round a corner, he did so and I got out the car with the bag and ran back round the corner just as the police were going past. I heard a door slam behind me and I knew that they'd let one out to chase me so I just kept running and running. I hopped over a garden fence, ran round to a side gate, opened that, crossed the road and hopped over their fence, threw the bag containing the shit on the garage roof and then went garden hopping. About a minute and a half later I was grabbed hiding behind some bins and taken into custody. They were asking me all sorts of questions like who was I travelling with, what happened to the bag I was carrying, why did I run etc but I didnt say a word. It turns out that they never caught up with my boss and because I didnt do anything wrong they had to let me go (after spending a night in the cells for resisting arrest). That night I thought about what would have happened if I had been caught.... so I rang my boss and quit. The next day I got the bus up to where we got chased, climbed onto the roof and got the bag. Needless to say I kept that But about a year ago I saw my boss on the news after an undercover policeman tried to buy weed off him, he realised, shut the door on his hand and dragged him up the road for a quarter of a mile. He got 3 years for that. Guess some people just dont know when to stop......

i got pulled over twice once for racing and one for being a car past curfew. both times i confessed the bud was mine, and both times the officers let me walk away with the herb and the bong. just be honest. the officer last night was givng me some insight telling me just always be honest they don't really care about a little pot. but once you start lying and denying searches it pisses them off and they want to take the law to the fullest extent.

PEACE

What about dogs?
In Washington, you have to take a ferry to get anywhere, and there are cops taking dogs through the whole ferry line supposedly sniffing for bombs.
Has anyone had their car sniffed (from the outside) and not been caught?

[psychocat]

They train sniffers for particular items, drug dogs are not trained for explosives and visa versa.

I've been driving stoned since i started driving. I've never had an accident, or come even close to having an accident. I hold an advanced driving licence, so im more than safe and capable while stoned.

I drive stoned everyday. I do tend to speed, on the safes streches [i know what people say, speeding is never safe] but the fact is if you know how to control a car and know where it's safe and where it's not, it IS safe. You obviously have to also take into concideration the car, the weather and density of traffic.

I have weed in my van everyday, for work. I've never been pulled over, or searched in the van. When i have been caught with weed, i've had it confiscated and a warning [not a caution, i wasnt arrested and then dearrested.] or they just left it and said "not in public."

I dont have a problem with the police, they dont make the pathetic laws. Although, in many other areas i do have a problem with them, they're lazy and never doing their jobs properly. Their corrupt, and dont know HOW to use disgression.

I'm smoking weed, not stabbing people. The cops dont bother me coz i dont bother them. I hurt no one. I cause no harm. The public might get a whiff of my ganja every now and again, but they dont mind - most of them smoke it anyway.

And my stoned driving, is safe driving. Hence why i've never crashed. I've also never had any damage done while parked, or had a breakdown in any of my cars [coz i fixed them myself haha] and never damaged anyone elses property. My insurance is low as fuck, and im a happy man ahaha.

I know not everyone agree's with stoned driving, but think of it like this - would you rather i was stoned, or drunk? There's your answer.

By the way, just so you know, im not talking about being mashed. I mean stoned as in mellow, relaxed comming down if you like. If im too fucked i just wait before i leave. But i normally do a good job with the timing of the last joint i smoke so im mellow when i need to leave.

[psychocat]

Why make a comparison between two wrongs?
Asking if I would prefer you behind the wheel stoned or drunk is ridiculous since the answer is a firm NEITHER!
