Have you fallen asleep while driving?

Have you ever fallen asleep while driving a car? Even for a split second?

Yes or No?

[boybi]

Yes. I was with my dad. We were at the single lane portion of NLEX before it was rehabilitated. I fell asleep for a few seconds and then I heard my dad telling me not to overtake using the shoulder. That's when I realized that I was already swerving to the shoulder.

[mramora]

yes, always. may it be on mornings, afternoons or at night times. i'd fell asleep for a split second and would realize that i'm swerving to the other lane.

I have fallen asleep at the wheel.

I already have two accidents because of it. One recent and the other one many many years ago.

I have tried ways to counter the sleepiness (including a cup of coffee or caffeine pills) but the best one is simply to park the car and sleep a few minutes.

8 or so years ago around 2am at edsa. pababa ako ng tunnel sa may ayala and i think i nodded off for a second or two when i noticed i was about to go under the trailer of the truck to my right. needless to say, i was wide awake the rest of the trip home after that. what an accident that would have been, malaki pa naman yung trailer and it was carrying a lot of heavy metals for construction - no contest yung compact sedan na dala ko.

Yes. Once na sumapit ang past 10pm at nasa kalsada ako, naguumpisa na kong antukin at pumipikit-pikit. Now, I counter it by eating chewing gum. Pag candy kasi, wala lang din, aantukin din ako once matunaw yun candy sa bibig
