Yup, kena before also. Stop at R&R, wash face and rest.
Nowadays rest well before driving outstation. Only worried if stay in Hotel, cannot get good rest sometimes....
Seriously, always thought I wont fall asleep even sleepy, once happen, takut adi...
Sometimes just sing along in the car with songs in the radio or just look around
instead of just looking in front...cuz I usually drive back hometown at night.

Agree, to stop at R&R next time but best stop at those that is quite bz one, not those
small ones...later kena rob.

Some how at night not so sleepy, unless you are talking about past midnight into early morning.
My case is driving in hot afternoon sun, really feel sleepy after a while, eyes cannot open...

Ya mine, after 12 midnight, prefer to travel at that time, less cars and a few lorries and buses at night.

Go to pasar malam / hypermarket ...buy the mosquito squasher. When sleepy, whack yourself and make sure u are electrocuted. Confirm can last for 1 hour.

I will sleep at R&R for at least 15minutes if I'm too tired to drive. A power sleep of 15-20mins can save our lives and others so it's important to stay awake

U suggested to use that Mosquito Electrocution Racket to stay awake but end up, u say
u will sleep at R&R for a break. I think until next morning also still awake if you use that...

Ya, got passengers or not, still dont drive when sleepy, unless u have someone beside u
talking to u to keep u awake or give u some nice massage at the neck. It works.

Sometimes i just wind down the window...let some air noise distract me a bit...

i used to drink 2 cans of redbull drink, 1 hour before embarking long driving, to keep me alert.

Having a co-pilot and chit chatting can help from feeling sleepy when diving.

Just have to be mindful, that if needed rest along the way....do rest a while. After all, 20min late wont makes much difference.....until accident happens.
if serious shit happens.....you can "sleep"" forever...

The best time to drive long distance is after sleep, no matter day or night. I like night driving but my damn headlamps are not bright enough for safe night driving.
It used to be ghost story telling on FM988 on Friday night, that was the time I usually went on interstate! Chilling all the way!

Yup, I also prefer night driving now, not too late maybe after dinner time. Weather way cooler and no sun in the eyes nor hot weather to make you sleepy.

Hear ghost stories and driving alone no need air-con......hahahahahahaha:rofl:

Yup, just funny whenever I feel sleepy, she seems to wake up at the right time to give me a
massage on the neck, feels a lot better and it works. Even if u tried squeezing or massaging
ur neck a little, u feel better...

The wind sound from the outside also quite effective...

Another GTR crashed to Wira from the back. Then a cargo split into half.

I guess GTR gives out too much confidence to drivers. Tsk tsk.
GTR = Get Too Reckless. Not applicable to all. :rolleyes:

They think with all the safety features, accidents can be avoided....

The World Rally Championship (WRC) seemed like it failed to clear the jump following the exit of many works teams from the series a few years back but things are heating up once again on the dirt trails of the WRC.

Word has it that Saab, under new owners Spyker, will be making a return to the twisties of the WRC for the first time sine 1979.
