Kava - driving

Hi everybody, I wonder to know, Have you ever had any problems with driving after drinking your kava beverage ( even in case of "weaker - middle drink") ?

I take a bicycle to and from college on some pretty busy roads and have to cross under a highway on-ramp. There are some kava strains that doing this or driving in a car would be suicide while under the influence of. The mild strains and gentle ones like Fire Island Instant or Fiji wouldn't do much to you as far as driving goes as long as you're not drinking a gallon of it.
The nice thing about kava is it doesn't screw your judgment so you're far less likely to jump in a car or on a bike and do something dumb because you know you're krunk and aren't so krunk you can't admit it.

I try not to drive after drinking kava, but if I have to or it ends up in my plans, I'll only do so with a nice mellow Hawaiian kava like HKC Hiwa or Mahakea, something that is just a mellow body relaxation at most. In fact, the mellow kavas probably make me a much better driver, as driving normally makes me nervous and over-corrective, and kava will demolish that. Just remember how different kavas hit you, and if you find you need to drive somewhere, stick with a mellow, light kava.

This is exactly my goal ! I dont want to feel like "drunk" or "stoned" or have feelings of dizziness after drinking my cup of kava(and
also it is definitely not a safe while driving a car) and I also dont
like this feeling at all ! But I am interesting in that way, I also want
to feel relaxed and calm while driving my car(because of my problems
with anxiety disorder). Because of that, I wonder if Melo melo or
Boroguru kava is a suitable kava for this purpose(for calm - safe
driving without losing coordination due to dizziness or any other
similar feelings..)? maybe Judd can say more for this...

Boroguru is one of the stronger kavas we have at store.bulakavahouse.com and is the highest in the kavalactone DHM, which is responsible for the loss of motor skill associated with kava use. If you are concerned about driving after drinking kava from us Melo Melo would be the better choice between the two you mentioned.
