aye, i do this, where i concentrate too much on the road and its goes all a blur, then i wake out.
btw, a good tip to staying awake, apart from drinking coffee/red bulls etc is to force yourself to sing to the music your listen to  it worked wonders when i drove to and from bristol with only 3hrs sleep

Don't think i've fallen asleep... not sure though.
Used to get loads of times when i've been really close to it, just feel my head rolling back and have to slap myself.
Drove to Rhyl to shag on the beach once, and nearly fell asleep on the way back, had to stop for a coffee

i drove from dundee to london last year , fell asleep loads of times and woke up at the rumbling of ma tyres on the hard shoulder , very close to crashing . so i pulled over and had a sleep. think it was because it was dark , warm and no one to talk to
