I have a 25-minute commute each way to the school I teach at.

This year I've started having a small bowl on the way, probably 3 days a week.

No accidents (or anything even close) but I got to wondering if other people do this to.
How about it fellas? Fess up!

When I am in a work vechicle I always have the pipe rolling. In my own personal I can't because of my 2 girls.

Yes I do. However I do not get near the enjoyment I do when I'm stationary , and able to focus. I probably smoke hotter while driving though.

I did, then I got worried about the horrific damage that could be done by an airbag deployment into the pipe-holding facial region. But then I figured that my pipe would probably fall safely out of the way as I opened my mouth to let out the girliest manliest pre-crash scream ever heard.
Now I smoke when I drive, but I try to keep the pipe angled off to the side of my face, just in case.

I puff while driving from time to time, though my commute is only about 1.5 miles...so I don't often pull out a pipe for the commute.
As for the airbag worry...no airbag = no worry :D

I have always have a bowl or two while on the road. Listening to the classical station out here and the pipe helps calm me down while I drive. Otherwise, I'd tend to speed and stuff.

I run the same frame of mind as Drew... I load my pipe before I go to bed so I don't have to screw with it when I'm half asleep and can smoke on my way to work, and load another at lunch so I can smoke on the way home.
I'm trying to use this as a way to focus and relax more and it definitely seems to help while driving that 1/2 hour home.

I always smoke while driving. I am very careful though about concentration on the road especially when tamping and relighting. I'm a clencher so there is no problem keeping two hands on the wheel or shifting if driving a standard. If necessary, I'll pull off the road for a relight. I'm also conscious of dropping the pipe if I see an accident coming my way because of possible air bag deployment. Thankfully that has not happened. I find that traffic congestion does not tense me up when I'm enjoying a large bowl.
