he was lucky to stay out of jail for this repeat offending (though to be fair at least he didn’t crash his car and hurt himself or anyone else). But this sort of thing is why drugs stay illegal and cops here feel that raves should be controlled..

A POLICE officer has told how a driver, found to be high on ketamine three times within the space of 15 days, was the worst he had ever seen.
Philip Reece had a ‘zombie vacant expression’ and was so out of it on the drug, used as a tranquilliser by vets, that he unable to answer basic questions like his date of birth or the prime minister’s name.
“I have never seen a person as intoxicated as Mr Reece,” Det Con Craig Brett told Bury St Edmunds magistrates. “I was staggered that he was able to drive at all bearing in mind that he could hardly keep his eyes open or stop the mucus sliding down his face.”
But when interviewed, Reece told police he felt perfectly safe to drive while Sarah Smeeth from the probation service told the court that because he only received a caution the first time, he thought it was not taken seriously by police.

TBH I think this was what stopped me getting too heavily into the stuff like a lot of my mates, I enjoy cycling too much to want to be not capable of doing it..

theres been many a time ive gone to score k on a bike and had a hefty line soon as. then literally either being smack on arse in the middle of town not even being able to stand up (its not a good look).. or.. falling off the bike every 2 seconds. all this whilst my mates are sitting there waiting for me to get back with the k.
saying that, i dont even have to be on a bike and i end up in weird places. a couple of weeks ago i picked up a few grams all for myself and i had to make my way back to the squat for my mates birthday bash so i thought jumping on a bus would be the brightest idea. i ran straight to the back of the bus and got a gram out and sniffed half of it all at ones. a few mins later i got the wrap out and did the rest of it. a whole gram in the space of 5 mins. after that i dont know what happened. i think i must have missed my bus stop coz i ended up a good 10 mins up the road in the other direction from the squat. the next thig i can remember is asking some randomer where a particular supermarket is (which is close to the squat) and he pointed down the road and said walk in that direction. i had to swing by an offlicense to grab some booze and they wouldnt serve me :/ for obvious reasons, but it really pissed me off

do whatever you want with your own life, i’m not against drugs obviously. but it makes me really mad when people choose to drive when drunk/drugged up, because you could easily kill someone. it’s so bloody selfish. drive off a cliff and ruin your own life then i don’t care but you could hit a child or a mother or someone’s best friend, it’s not right to risk it.

I moved from London to this region and unfortunately DUI (both alcohol and drugs) is really tempting to a lot of people because this region is big and a lot of it rural and there isn’t much public transport, plus free parties happen only in the more remote areas…

there’s not many cliffs to drive off in EA (they don’t put roads by the coast normally for this very reason) but over the years we’ve lost as many young ravers through RTCs as from drugs 🙁

its a vicious circle as the cops see every case as another reason to clamp down on drugs and they feel that by stopping rave-type events less people are tempted to take drugs, though the reality is stopping the parties has made things worse as people just sit around houses and do ketamine..

I done the same thing once apart from I wasn’t going to pick up I was trying to get home and because I was tripping of my face I thought I was jumping on the number 8 bus instead it was the number 6 it took me straight to Herne Bay which at the time I had bail conditions to stay out of and after getting of the bus in the totally wrong location I started making my way to the train station to have another attempt at getting home not even half way there and a police cars pulls up beside me and they run my details through find out I’m in breach on my bail conditions so here I am thinking a night in the cells is coming but after struggling to explain what had happened I got a lift to the train station and finally managed to get home.
Ketamine can really mess up your judgement sometimes which in turn can make it a very dangerous drug especially for the inexperienced user.
