Cold AC on blast, Spanish band music super loud, downing energy drinks, chewing gum/jerkey/anything, slapping myself across the face, and pinching my legs… all to stay awake while driving and not die.
God! I was stupid.
Who else has pulled over and done jumping jacks on the side of the road to wake up?
I used to do a lot of driving for my job. A lot of times I’d pull over and walk around a bit just to get things flowing again. Worst came to worst, there was more than a few times I’d just take a nap… I’d sooner be late somewhere than dead or worse, taking someone else out.
I had some close calls, but I remember my worst drive I stopped at rest areas whenever it got too bad to take a 10-15 min nap in the driver seat.
But that last hour stretch j was so close to home I probably should’ve just gotten a hotel at that point. I did like 20 hours of driving in a 48 hour period with no real sleep in that time.
