The more I look at my title the less it makes sense.
Its funny that a few people are so butt hurt they feel the need to waste five dollars on a stupid title
[QUOTE=redsoxrock;41161116]Its funny that a few people are so butt hurt they feel the need to waste five dollars on a stupid title[/QUOTE] It's not funny, it's sad. I think at least $25 or more has been spent on titles just in this thread alone. Garry rejoices.
[QUOTE=DigitalySane;41159911]I wouldn't test your luck OP, Doesn't matter if it dulls your senses less than alcohol, It can still fuck you over.[/QUOTE] So can listening to the radio while having a conversation while dead tired but I doubt you'd chastise me for it
So this guy was a child molester? I think he earned that death.

That's just a goddamn fucking fact of nature, and the same thing applies to just about every other drug on the face of the planet. Guess what's really important while driving? Reaction-time.

[QUOTE=breakyourfac;41160824]The more I look at my title the less it makes sense.[/QUOTE] I like how its just factually incorrect.
Sound like we need to reduce the deer population a bit, they can cause vehicular damages when they are on the road... So i say we let the hunters get a nice deal with hunting down deers a bit for population control.

If you saw a crash like this the worst thing to do would be to go and try help the person, moving them could fuck them up more and the car has a chance to ignite/explode which could cause you to die as well which would be very unnecessary
Most of my friends drive REAAALY slow when they're high. Im talking 20 in a 35. Its just TOO FAST they say. I'm not saying its ok to drive while high its just that from my experience its not as bad as most people think it is.

Oh my god those first few pages were painful since I've run into the types who try and "help" at accident scenes (EMT speaking). Call it in and get the fuck out, if we need help we will ask but there's about a 0.0%, repeating of course, chance that will happen. If you can see the victims the dispatcher might ask you to describe it, don't play Henry Hero and start digging around in wreckage trying to "comfort" someone you'll just get hurt or muck up the scene. Op literally did nothing wrong.
[QUOTE=breakyourfac;41153363]because the girl and I were smoking bud and cruising and I had alcohol with me. [/QUOTE] Fuck you, you are literally one of the worst kinds of people. sad about the guy who died though
[QUOTE=thelurker1234;41163383]Fuck you, you are literally one of the worst kinds of people.[/QUOTE] Not like there wasn't already a 6 page discussion about that.
[QUOTE=thelurker1234;41163383]Fuck you, you are literally one of the worst kinds of people. sad about the guy who died though[/QUOTE] So many sheltered people on fp. I'm not trying to say driving high isn't dangerous but it's no different from driving tired or on many prescription drugs. It doesn't give you some false sense of being an awesome driver like alcohol, it's quite the opposite. Also you guys saying its his fault etc need to stop posting, when I did my first aid training they said there is nothing you can do for someone in a car accident except call 999 because chances are you're putting yourself in more danger than the victim is

[QUOTE=Glue Factory;41164024]So no matter what the situation, we're just supposed to call 000 and speed off.

[QUOTE=Elecbullet;41153559]I've driven high, it's not really all that bad.[/QUOTE] Everyone says that about driving drunk, too, until they crash. Such a sad story, though. It still pisses me off that you were high AND had alcohol in the car while driving.
Half of the people complaining about driving high probably haven't ever been high themselfs.
