Did you ever doze off while driving?

I hate to admit it but yes only for a few seconds but when the wheel jerked I was awake. I have heard many accidents that have killed because of people who are to tired falling asleep behind the wheel it is best to pull over take a 30 minute cat nap or maybe a hour. My mom and dad has also feel asleep behind the wheel because of driving from New Mexico to Kentucky driving 16-20 hours a day for 3 days straight. I am glad your friend was stopped when it happened I would have hated to hear he paid for that mistake with his life.

This probably won't happen on me because I always feel very nervous if I am driving. During the drive, I am very carefully looking front just afraid to bump into other cars or people. After I drive, I always feel very tired for being too intense in myself. And I can't help it.

I can see why it happens though....I have never actually dozed off. But I have been to the point where I am so tired and groggy that I have had to pull over! If I am tired I try to make sure I keep a window open and coffee or other caffiene drink available.

I started driving when I was 13 years old, that was 14 years back. I never had an experience like that nor any type of accident 'til now. Maybe I am just too careful because I'm afraid of accidents. I always see to it that I am in good condition before driving. Or if times I need to drive even I feel sleepy or I am lack of sleep, I'll just concentrate my mind looking on the road or listen to hard music that will not keep me sleep or nap.

i never let myself doze off while driving as this is really dangerous on the road. the loud music in the car always keep me awake. whenever i feel tired, i will definitely put on my favorite music and this makes me more energetic while driving.
