Traveling can be fun, but driving can make you sleepy! There is nothing worse than driving sleepy, it is even said to be worse than drunk driving! Here are a few things I take with me when driving on long road trips since I do this a lot anyways with the job I have currently:
1. Have your coffee in the morning and take a glass with you!
I even drink it throughout the day, I even stop at gas stations along the way to my destination to pick up a cold Starbucks energy shot!
2. Blast the music!
This ALWAYS helps me stay awake!
3. If you start dozing off.. pull over! Jump out! Run around your car! Get back in and go!
You make look dumb as hell, but at least you're not gonna fall asleep and die or kill someone else!
4. CALL SOMEONE!
Make sure you are still paying attention to the road, but having someone on speaker and talking to them also helps me stay awake!
