I must admit I have, scared the shit outta me when I woke up and relised what happened, the only reason I woken up was because the car ran over those rumble strips on the motorway hard shoulder, it was the driverside wheels that eventually woke me up

done it loads went across someones front lawn once. Coming back from max live was the worst, feeling REALLY tired 5mins after leaving the NEC, head falling forwards and knowing ive got a 2hour drive ahead of me yet. The was scarey, esp. after almost hitting a lorry up the arse the year before, pretty much asleep!

nearly nodded off a few times while driving...

Nodded off several times when I was younger doing a paper round on my bike though... up at 6am every morning and going to bed late lol!

used to close my eyes on bits I knew and the bike would just coast... lol... then I'd wake up at bottom of the hills etc...

fell asleep properly once and my bike hit the kurb lol!

On the way back from trax2004, first time I've ever been REALLY tired behind the wheel. Was horrible, also on the M1 or whatever it is no one wanted to drive fast in the fast lane so we just sat there at crusing speed, was fucking horrible.

Fell asleep on the way back from Blackpool last year for about 3secs, shit myself. It was a very hot day and I had been walking around for hours. The 3 hour drive back to Glasgow wasn't fun.
