I'll start off this story saying I was very very stupid and when I get sleepy now, I just pull off the road a take a nap.

I was driving home after visiting my friend who lived 1.5 hours away at the time. It was a 3 lane freeway and I was in the far right lane. The freeway was straight for miles and I was dosing. I cought myself falling asleep a couple of times and didn't worry too much cause no one was in front of me and the road was so straight. Next thing I know I'm waking up half dazed and I see myself vearing towards the little white stick on the side of the freeway. I wasn't going to hit anything but I was just vearing off to the side. Instead of turning the wheel slightly, I apparently over corrected it and started doing donuts while sliding to the far left lane. The whole thing was blurry, but I could still picture the little I was able to make out at the time. I must have spun at least 10 times before sliding off the road into the left shoulder that was made of twigs and a bush that divided the north and south freeway. After freaking out thinking my car was totaled, I got out of my car to find out I didn't hit anything, but instead was 2 inches away from the bushes. I looked around to see if anything was damaged and there was nothing but a tiny tiny dent in my front bumper. I was so releaved to find no damage and was ready to leave before any cops saw me. I put the car in reverse and started to back up. My wheels were going buy I was stuck. I started to freak out again wondering how I was going to get home. Then I just decided to floor it on and off, rocking the car back and forth till it finaly started inching out of the ditch. I safely got on the freeway while wondering why nobody even stopped to see if I needed help :madfawk:. Then I stopped to check my oil to see if the pan may have been punctured. Turned out the plastic tray under the front kinda got ripped off, but not completely, when I was backing up.

Never sleep while driving. I am so glad that I didn't kill myself or anyone else. I didn't even damage my car.
