Drive Medical Seat Why am I falling asleep while driving longer distances?
I can drive up to 45 minutes or an hour most of the time without any difficulty. I live in a small coastal community and medical specialists or better shopping opportunities require 2 to 3 hour driving distances.
During the last couple of years, I need to have someone accompany me out of town. I will not drive alone as it is very dangerous for me and other drivers. After driving for more than an hour, the urge to sleep overtakes me. I am constantly struggling to keep my eyes open. I do stretches in my seat in an effort to keep myself awake(ie flex my feet, fingertips etc...) On numerous occasions, I have had to pull over and take a nap. What could be causing this? It is very frustrating.
I forgot to tell you that I don't even enjoy Sunday drives with my family anymore. I just tend to fall asleep!
