What is the closest you have come to killing someone (or yourself) while driving unde

Just be careful, I fucked up a 2001 Camry on alcohol and Xanax. Luckily insurance paid for most of the repairs. It takes a wakeup call like that to stop you from driving drunk and on benzos to understand what it's like. I'll never drive on the combo again. I thank God that I didn't get a DUI for that incident.
edit - I cleaned up the post a little since I was doped up when I originally wrote it and I was babbling like an idiot.

News flash captain, you can fuck your shit up real bad on either alone. Just saying you won't combine them probably won't keep you out of trouble.
 
~one time driving home from a party my friends were driving in car #2 behind me and i look up into the rearview to see his car veering off the road. and just to make things worse there was someone changing a tire right there too! he "woke up" and swerved back onto the road but to this day thinking about that scares the shit out of me.
just think about how one fraction of a second could change your (and someone else's) life forever before you decide to drive home fucked up.

I don't drive under the influence anymore. but the closest i have come is when i was in ohio and got the dui. they dropped the hit and run because they couldn't prove it was me i guess.

PEACE
 
chalk one up for sleep deprivation here too.

I was driving home new years day at 5am, 2000, when i fell asleep and ran a red right at a big intersection. Got t-boned by a f350 crew cab dually pickup pulling a triple horse trailer. Almost got hit by another chevy truck 4 feet behind the ford truck, but since he hit me, it spun me around missing the other truck. Spun my car around 3 times, threw my sub box 100 yards down the street over a 15 foot fence. The cops couldnt find half of my car that was missing, so they just towed my car to the lot where my stereo was stolen and about 100 bux worth of other stuff too. Didnt get hurt at all, no injuries. They made me go to the fucking hospital, i refused treatment, they let me go with a tylenol 3 script. Wankers. I drank 1 screwdriver at about 9pm, no drugs at all for the entire night. I was pissed i could do something so stupid sober. If i had drugs i would not have gotten into a wreck, because i would have been awake and not sleepy.
 
When I was peaking off of 5 and a half Blue Doves I had to take somebody home. I drove perfect until I dropped him off. After that I couldn't focus and my vision would just crap out on me, but it only lasted for a second or two. Well, one time it lasted for about 6-7 seconds and when I finally focused I was driving diagonally about 1 foot from going off the road in to a ditch. I swerved and barely missed it but I almost spun out cuz I swerved so hard. I was going about 70mph.
 
I had just bought a brand new black Volvo wagon, first new car I ever owned, eight miles on the odometer i nodded out IN MY OWN DRIVEWAY and sideswiped a tree on the front lawn, 1500 bucks in bodywork. But that was just the warm up. Later I had to drive my depressed friend back to the city for a psych appointment, like 100 miles on an 8 lane highway, I was wide awake when we started out and OK to drive (I thought) but at some point I nodded and woke up drifting off the side of the road right toward a semi parked on the shoulder at 50mph, swerved back into the road with inches to spare, almost hit about 3 other vehicles in the process. I asked my friend how long I'd been on the nod and he said "on and off for like five minutes", I said man why didn't you punch me or something? He said he was feeliing suicidal and he thought maybe it was a good idea to crash into the truck.
 
Honestly, I just don't drive if i feel i can't. I'll just go find the closest rest stop and pass out til morning. So, I've never really came close to killing anyone while under the influence (sober is another story though.) My baseline is usually I won't drive if I'm been drinking or tripping balls. Otherwise, I usualy drive more carefully and attentive on the other stuff like herb and coke and e. That stuff just makies me tune into the road more. With Acid or shrooms, I'd get too distrated by other things going on, and with liquor, I'm just plain stupid.
 
I remember being really, really tired one morning about 5am, no sleep earlier that night.
I had to drive about 3 km from a friends house to my place.
As i was driving along, i remember saying to myself, as i look up the road ... "i'll just shut my eyes untill that intersection.."
Geez! Im glad as soon as i thought that, i snapped out of it, cause that could have ended quite messily at the intersection. Thank god i kept my eyes open till i got home.

Very rarely do I actualy laugh out loud when reading message boards, but thats amazing.

True words of wisdom!!
 
Only time I've ever driven on anything was on like only 3 lines of coke or something pathetic.

I pulled out from where I was parked at about 10pm when a car coming the other way beeped at me, and flashed their lights. I fliped them off and shouted an insult whilst winding down the window.


Then I realised it was pitch black and I was driving with no lights on.

Since then I wont drive on ANYTHING. Last weekend I had to drive our singer to a practice which is like 30 minutes drive away. Once I got there I told him the drive was sketchy as I still felt drunk from the night before. He was pissed.
 
One of my life long friends died the other week from driving drunk. His car flipped over on to him 2 times and he died a painful slow death. It is sad, but thank god he didn't kill anyone else. He had just had a girl months before and was going to get married in a few months.
 
My cousin killed himself and his best friend by driving drunk. He decided 12 beers was enough but he could see straight (haha right) about 1/2 mi from the bar his truck was found slammed into a light pole, both people thrown out of the windshield and about 50 ft away (or my cousin was, I dunno about the other guy) no belts or anything. Sad yes but as much shit as he was doing I'm surprised it took this long for him to kill himself. I know that's mean esp since it was my cousin but if you knew him you'd understand my reasoning.

As for sleep deprivation, I have two. One was me and friend driving to portland from seattle, roughly a 4-5 hour drive. We headed south around midnight, mistake one, but this was a spontaneous thing cuz the races were crappy so we headed to portland. We got about 3/4 there and he had decided he was too tired to drive and we parked at a rest stop just off the highway. Only once we got there neither of us were falling asleep so we got some coffee and headed toward portland again. We get there no problems wide awake thanks to that coffee (I swear whoever made it made it 5x as strong as it should be) We start heading home cuz it's 4:30 in the morning and my bed sounds SO comfortable right then. I'm pretty much falling asleep every 10 minutes and man those straight aways just knocked my ass out. Seeing how tired I am I tell my friend hey let's park and sleep, we're both tired and you know driving isn't all too safe. So we do and once again we end up awake there. So we did the same thing we did last time we were at a rest stop, got some coffee and took off. All I remember is passing Kelso, Wa and next thing I know we're about 50 mi away from that and my friend nodded off and I started hitting him to wake him up. This went on for like 2 hours, I'd nod off, then wake up and see him nodding off, then I'd hit him and so on. Well the last tme I nodded off he did at the same time and we both wake up inches from the barrior on his side, if he woke up not 2 seconds later we would have hit that going 80. That managed to keep us awake til we got to my house then we both crashed til 4pm in which my mom woke us up asking if we'd like breakfast and "where the hell were you two all damn night??"
Second one is long too so I'll cut it to this: 4am, eastern Wa, coyote got paralyzed for staring at the headlights too long.
 
you guys are not very used to the fact of functioning on drugs very well, just as some advice. whenever you are fucked up and either have to go hom or drive someone home etc. just before you leave take into consideration that you are fucked up and also take into consideration what drugs you are on! 9 times out of ten there is someone there that is either sobre or less fucked up then you are that can take you home or take your friend home. but if you have to drive just remember what you took and prepare yourself properly before you go out. it is people that are careless behind the wheel when they are messed up that give drug users a bad name! just keep in mind!
 
Holy shit! I'm scared to drive anymore with all you bluelighters on the road! 8o 8o ;)

Long story, short...
I was 16 after a looong nite of of drinking at a party, I got a ride home and my parents were pissed i was drunk.
So I stole a bottle of vodka and my grandmothers car and drove to my friends house, to run away, lol.
I got to her, but within 2 seconds of her being in the car I lost control, hit the gas instead of the brake and crashed head on into a telephone pole.
We were brused pretty bad after the fact, but we walked away fine.
Needless to say I got into a wee bit of trouble that night, but DID NOT get charged with drunk driving! very weird. but happy
We were so lucky, the car was totaled!
 
I must be lucky... after 3 days up and a nice 2-CB trip on the way home from DEMF was definetly the closest i've come to dying only because i couldtn stay focused on the road...

everything else was distrating me. :\
 
YIKES! Cant belive whut ive read thus far. Specially the comments bout how *wrecks coulda been avoided if under the influence RATHER than sober*. Sounds like a buncha BS excuses to me.

As for me. Yeah i fucked up a couple times. Been charged *not convicted* of dui twice. Lucky for me cops caught me *cant belive im saying this* before i put myself or ne other innocent person in danger.

IMHO not good to be driving under tha influence of ne thing. Please someone explain to me how one can think they drive BETTER while on ne mind altering substance *weed included*? I just dont get it.
