Yes or No?
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.![]()
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.
yep. this happened along molino road near sm molino. i fell asleep for a few seconds at the wheel & nearly bump an adventure in front of me. i just heard my wife yell at me. bigla ako nagising, sabay preno. muntik na kami.......![]()
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
yes, but for a split second lang mga 2 years ago. I was alone kasi while driving out of town most of the tie. I was starting to veer away from my lane going to the center of the road. It gave me chills needing for me to stop and relax. Grabe nakaka-kaba. I started to take naps na lang everytime I feel that way again or sing a song. But napping is the best.

Fasten your seatbelt! Or else...Driven To Thrill!
Yes, during a couple of long drives. I drank water, moved my legs and body a lot, and sang aloud while turning the volume of the stereo to near full blast...

just this year, i was 30 hours up and i can't fight it no more. i dozed off under the stoplight of north avenue beside veterans hospital. good thing i was alone in the road for it was a sunday morning.
Yes...happened to me once, am with my sister, coming from a relatives' party in manila, we're already at the stretch of aguinaldo hi-way, my sister was talking endlessly that time, pero nakatulog pa den ako, split second lang, wala naman masyadong sasakyan, pero kinda scary pa den, i really couldnt figure out how that happened...after nun naging sobrang sobrang ingat ko na...siguro kasi past my bedtime na den and na-imagine ko na yun bed ko......tama si GH, dapat kung medyo sleepy ka or feel mo hindi ka pa fit to drive, magpahinga muna few minutes...

Yes about a couple of years ago, I didn't realize the car was veering towards the right papunta sa ilalim ng trailer.
and GH is right, neither coffee nor caffeine candies/pills will do.
Nung na alimpungatan ako and realized what almost happened, my legs where started shaking badly.
A few meters ahead of me was a 7-11, I stopped and took a very short nap.
yup! 2-3am driving home from OT.
going down jones bridges and the jeep in front of me became my break/barrier. hehehehe
buti na lang di masyado malakas at gasgas lang at onting yupi ang damage ng sedan ko.
bait naman si manong driver at di na ko inabala... wala kasing damage yung stepboard nung jeepney niya. tibay ng kalawanging bakal!
tip: masturbate while driving.
di ko nga lang alam sa mga premature ejaculators.
Im comparing the danger if you are about to come while driving and sleeping for a split second hehe
Ako usually pag friday night, drinking out with my friends nahilig kami sa beer below zero.
Nasarapan ako sobra to the point na i drank 15 bottles. Pag upo ko sa oto dun sumipa yung tama, as i drove myself home inantok na.. Napapikit, nagising na lang ako ng sumampa yung front wheels sa center island ng daan thankfully hindi ako napalipat sa opposite lane. After nun dilat na dilat na ako, praying and thanking god wala nangyari saken.
ako hindi pa naman
kaya lang, since nagtaas ang gas this year, i've been keeping my speed to 80 kph kahit sa highways. . .the effect: nababato at inaantok ako
twice already around 2004, NLEX 3:30 am after shift. slept from bocaue bridge to taal bridge. luckily I haven't changed lanes and the road is clear. forced me to get an 8 to 5 work....
