Is driving while high the same thing as drunk driving?

I drive high ALOT.

But then again, almost every time I do acid I have to drive at some point. And I've driven drunk several times. And on ecstasy...

I'm just irresponsible as shit I guess. But in terms of the easiest, I'd say pot is the easiest to drive on. Actually scratch that. Ecstasy was the easiest. You are a little trigger happy though on X. Like to speed, whereas on pot you usually go slow and think you're goin fast.

Driving under the influence is never smart but it has much less of an effect than alcohol.

its dubm that he lit the bowl WHILE driving.. but I don't think being slightly high is too bad to drive in. While its illegal and it isn't that smart, its nowhere near as bad as being drunk

I've never driven drunk to compare but the one time I drove high, I really disliked it- it made me insanely anxious, granted I drove perfectly fine as a sober friend would attest. I would not do it again though just because of the stress it gave me.

I used to smoke and drive. It was classy. But seriously not a good idea. I could drive better than if I were drunk (I never drank and drove) but I thought I was playing a video game. Not good.

Yeah, I'd opt to be the roller instead of the driver any way of the week. A blunts nothing compared to gas these days, and I'm driving a wreck.

smoking cannabis does not take away coordination compared to alcohol. It might slow down reaction time slightly, but coordination isnt affected.

You're wrong. It is a depressant, the same category of drug as alcohol. Read up on the effects of depressants.

I've got nothing against stoners, but don't drive while you're under the influence of anything illegal. Not only is it dangerous for yourself, but you put other people at risk as well.

I know what it does to me so I know what and what I cannot do.

Bottom line though, no one under the influence of any substance should be driving. Including cigs, we can't be biased now. But it's your choice, you get caught...or you kill someone or yourself...or just turn paraplegic. The cops only need to catch you once, where as you have to keep getting away with it time after time.

Are you kidding? You shouldn't drive whilst under the influence of ANYTHING. Both Alchohol, or drugs are lethal in the car and in your mouth

No, but you shouldn't do it anyways. I'm capable of driving when I'm high, as long as I'm not stoned to the spot. But I'm definitely not a great driver when I'm high and really don't like doing it. Driving drunk is just a really horrible idea.
