Was up for ~24 hours when I decided to drive two hours to go to my parents house. This was a mistake. I had spray water at my face to keep my eyes open to drive. Made it to my dest. without incident. Never again.
LPT: Park your car in a safe spot, start the timer on your phone and close your eyes. Just keep them closed for a length of time that feels like 5 minutes and then open them up again. Check the timer, realize you just took a 30 min nap, and continue driving safely. I’ve done this many times, and I’ve always felt very refreshed afterwards. Also driving suddenly became 64000% easier, which was a nice bonus.
That's a good idea.
My story took place 20 years ago. I have never driven that sleep deprived again.
