Always be safe while driving!

yea man, sleeping pills and alc? christ. i drive occasionaly while high on weed, but i know when i can, and i don't drive if i feel i am too high and can't handle it. i try to be as responsible as i can with it(if its possible).
 
I've done my fair share of shit, I try not to drive having had anything to drink nowadays - not because I feel it impairs my judgment, but because I don't want to get a felony conviction for driving with a single beer in my system.

Alasdair, I think a lot of people say they "drive better stoned" not because smoking cannabis somehow magically makes them a better driver, but because they drive cautiously/carefully due to percieved impairment/paranoia, thus taking less risks than they might if sober and driving 'normally.'

So the car that was in your lane (the one that caused the crash) left the scene...? If the driver saw you flip and roll off the road and he still left the scene, I would bet he was the intoxicated one

Well, just even thinking about this pisses me off the most. I don't know if he was intoxicated or high or whatever, but he sure did flee. But from what I remember, he did slow down. Because within the time it took for the rolling and shit to get over with, I looked back and he was just starting to pick up big speed. So I think he slowed down as it happened and then freaked out. But I sure as hell wish I could see the prick face-to-face and just kick his fucking ass.

My friend who was seriously injured, broke something in his back. But I mean you all to have to understand this, it was the single worst thing that I have ever seen. I mean, the guy driving was sorta calm and chill usually. But when I heard him scream in pain as I just felt BANG after BANG, I thought he was gonna die...

That may sound stupid, but you would just have to put yourself in my position to understand.
 
^^That doesn't sound stupid at all. I wouldn't be surprised if this was so traumatic for you that you never get in a car again. I can only imagine what that scream sounded like and I'm glad that is the only way I can percieve it because I would never want to hear a blood curdling scream like that ever. I don't know how much this has effected you but you may want to visit with a counselor at least once because--although you may not notice anything now--you are definitely a candidate for post-truamatic stress disorder and ironically they prescribe drugs like valium for that. Not saying you should get drugs but you should definitely talk to someone. If this thread is helping than keep posting and I'll keep reading. By the way do you know what broke in his back and is he paralyzed or anything like that?

i handeled it no problem, my vision was fine and i had no problems with conntrol, i was just completely lucid. if i wasnt in shape to drive i wouldnt of.
 
Okay, before you guys flame me for this remember that I have known this girl for 6 years and she's my best friend.
Recently, she lost her arm (yes her entire left arm) in a car wreck, she flipped 16 times on the highway going 70 miles an hour. She wasn't drunk/stoned/anything. one night (after her wreck) her and I were hanging out when we got a call from another friend and decided to go and meet them. We had both taken alot of ambien/hydrocone and didn't really know what we were doing. I ended up smashing into a curve, getting pulled over, somehow getting off with only a DUI (which was later on dropped) and not even remembering ANY of it. I only found out the next morning when I wondered where the F*%* my car was was and why I had what looked like a ticket in my pocket. I have never driven on anything other than weed to this day. If I'm rip-roaring stoned I won't drive but otherwise I do, I'm not saying it's right but I do. I don't really know the morale of this story, except don't use Ambien. That drug is the devil-incarnate.

true, but the funny thing i've noticed about alcohol is that sometimes you just don't know quite how fucked up you are.
 
^ exactly - how many drunks think they are having 'no problems with control'. trouble is you (and those you endanger) find out too late...

there is a big difference between having no problems with control and thinking you have no problems with control. if you're under the influence, you're really not in a position to make that distinction objectively.

alasdair
 
i know it was a stupid thing to do, but i cant really change that, i am not planning to do it again and probaly wont. i wont try to defend myself anymore cuz it doesnt matter. you live you learn.

Thanks for the support. Well, my friend broke three vertebrates (Spelling?) in his back. He is not paralyzed, but that was a big worry for the doctors at ER when they first brought him in. He now is out of the hospital smoking weed and eating his pain pills. He is not abusing the pain pills because he really does need them.

I'm not sure about going to a counseler or not. It was a very scary thing to go through. It may sound stupid or may sound normal, but before this happened, I always thought of my death coming when I was older.

I talked to a cop about it today that was on the scene. He told me that it's amazing that I'm alive. I'm 17, but I only weigh 125. So it's a surprise that I did not get ejected from the car with the force. You see, when it happened, I was leaning back in the chair sending a text message to my friend. If I was sitting up straight and leaning just a little more over to the car door, the cop said I could of been crushed if I was not completely ejected from the car.

I don't think I'm going to see a counseler. Just talking about it here just sorta helps me out with it because I have respect for 99% of the users here and despite the fact that I'm a complete stranger to you all, you all still treat to me like a friend.
 
And here is another update about my friend: I actually saw him today. I was at a girl's house getting high and she drove to my friend's house and picked him up. From what I saw, he was actually walking. His back seemed like it was giving him a lot of pain though. Me and him smoked like 3 blunts of dro. :)
 
Damn, its cool all you guys survived. And while your friend probably coulda breaked faster had he not been high, I bet valium was the real culprit here, Especially if your friend was new to it. I crashed my car the firet time I got trashed on valium.

Also, the asshole in your lane is to blame. What the fuck, thats all I can say to that, you gotta be a total piece of shit to drive like that.
 
^^ yea totally. this happened to me too. guy flying at like 65 mph downhill in my lane. i breaked like hell and pulled over as far as i could. luckily, the guy missed me by like....6 inches...if that.
 
I went over to my friend's house last night and he is actually doing good. You would think after all he went through he would of been in a negative mood, but he was in a good mood. He seemed to be more worried about me than himself. He kept on asking me, "Are you SURE that you did not get hurt at all?" I told him I was fine.

Me and him went to the girl's house who mom smokes. She was smoking good buds with us. But when we got there, the girl's cousin came over. She is a cheerleader at my school and she is FINE. Well, as soon as she comes over, she started crying saying how scared and worried she was.

My friend however is only 20 (I am 17, just knew him from friends) and he wasn't going to college or anything and he had no health insurance, so the hospital bill and everything for him is crazy. I haven't told him yet, but I will be getting a $275 paycheck Tuesday and I'm going to be giving him $175 of it to help him pay the bills. I know he is having trouble and I would give him all the money, but I do need money for gas, with it being as expensive as it is.

I really hate how my dad treated me after the wreck. When I got home that night, he didn't ask me if I was alright or anything, he just yelled at me telling me that I shouldn't be out all the time. I'm not sure if he was angry just because his son had a experience so close to death or if that is just how he is. But it pisses me off. My mom was actually in tears and still is in tears. She doesn't like it when I leave, but I'm guessing she will get over it in a little while.

And inside the car, there was a bag with a half oz of weed in it. My friend didn't get that bag after the wreck even though we got the 2 ozs of weed another person had. But I guess the police did not find the bag or whatever because my friend has not been charged with it or whatever.

And I know that if drugs did cause the accident or made it worse, it was most likely the Valiums. My friend has done them before and I have to. But whenever you take them, sometimes you do not feel as messed up as you really are, so maybe that is the problem.

Keep note that I'm not sitting here saying don't drive while stoned on marijuana. I would not recommend driving high period, but I don't think it makes someone very dangerous behind the wheel. But I would NOT recommend anyone driving stoned if the road is wet or foggy.

I posted this thread because we all go to these forums for the same purpose, to talk about the drugs we like. I just want to make sure that none of you all have to go through what I went through, if you haven't already. Sometimes you just need to be reminded about how serious things can be.

And I must say that I am happy that I did not get flamed for this thread. Because I didn't want people to come here saying, "You can drive fine high you idiot." I have gotten that response from other people at school and everything when I tell them. But you have all have supported me through this.

The wreck gave me a few bad dreams last week, but they seem to get away. But I am thinking about seeing a doctor because whenever I am riding with somebody or driving, I just sometimes freak out. Like yesterday, I just pulled over. I guess I just have anxiety due to the crash, but I am hoping that I am overcome it. If I don't within the next few days, I'm going to see a doctor to see if he prescribe me something that maybe will help my anxiety. I don't want Valiums or Xanaxs while driving obviously, but I would like something to just calm my nerves and help the anxiety. Are there any drugs that could help me with that?
 
therapy or at least talking the whole thing over with friends a couple times would probably help a lot more than any drug, and thats probably what your doctor will say. Some things just take time.
 
I've driven under the influence of marijuana, alcohol, depressants, psychedelics and stimulants. I think driving drunk is really the worst of them all.

Yeah, that is pretty much what I am guessing what he would say. One of my freinds seems to be taking it hard. I haven't talked to him in a while because of work, but people have told me that he starts to freak out whenever he is riding. Someone also told me that he got drunk and stoned at his house and then just started freaking out about the wreck.

I think I'm going to give him a call when he gets home. I don't know if he will want to talk about it or not, but I hope he hasn't been taking it as bad as I am hearing.
 
well 2 days ago, me and my boyfriend were driving around waiting for bud and this fucking deer comes out of the woods and i swirved to try and miss it and my car fucking rolls. a minute later these hunters came and called an ambulence.. i had this huge lump on my head that looked like a giant tumor. but luckily i'm fine and my head is okay. i'm just reallllly sore. anyways, my dad just got my car from some tow-truck place and it's way more fucked up then i thought, everything is bent to hell. me and my boyfriend are lucky to be alive.

i wish i was stoned, because then i would have hit that god damn deer.
 
quick point^^ hitting the deer might have turned out a lot worse than you just rolling and coming out fine, as you did. Deer have a tendency to really fuck your car, and day, up.

oh, and its good to hear that you both are ok.

Damn, I'm glad you made it out fine. Did your boyfriend get injured any and do know exactly how much damage the wreck did? My friend just got his car a few weeks before he wrecked it and he had a lot of money into it.

I saw the car today and it's strange. You would never think we flipped if you saw the top of the car. There is only like a bigass dent and a few minor scratches. The rest of the car looks rough though.
