This. Driving sleepy is waaay more dangrous than driving drunk (well, maybe not as driving blackout drunk, but way more dangerous than driving with 3-4 beers for sure)
It's people who don't habitually drink and are partying down that cause accidents and get busted. Those people are why I stay off the roads on holidays.
I mean, alcohol clearly throws your reflexes, no way around it, but we rarely have to make split-second moves while driving. Can't remember the last time I had to dodge something. Worst I see is people clearly hammered or otherwise not 100% in control and I get the fuck away from them ASAP.
And yes, about the worst I've scared myself was driving home from college and jerking awake, realizing I had been driving asleep. Jesus.
14-hours on the road to get the kids tomorrow. Fuck me. Talk about dull. And then all over again in a week.
