Talking Wagon's East!

Well, only 9 more hours until I hit the road. Mind you, it'll be another 2 hours before I get home and go to bed. Oh well.... GOt the truck and trailer all set up. Slip tank filled up with home brew and all my trailer wiring gremlins have been slain. Hopefully I'll be holding a steady 110-120 most of the way out. I'll have to actually calculate my mileage this time too. ANyway, I won't have access to a computer for around 3 weeks. I'll log in as soon as I get back. See you then. Hi ho Silver, AWAY!!!!

thats not always good Fom... i try to stay as alert as possible, and when i feel myself tiring, its time for a stop-walk around, coffee and cold water splash. after a few scares, i hate driving when i'm tired.

In my case it`s not being tired but just not watching quite as close as I should.
You never know when the unexpected will happen or someone isn`t paying complete attention to their driving.

i'm going to contridict you dustin, but hope not to offend you. being tired, but feeling super alert it a common misconception very similar to DUI. in some places they will charge you with fatigued driving as a DUI charge. your mind will cause you to see things exagerated(thinking you're alert) while your body has diddly for reaction time. best cure...don't drive when you're tired. remember...red bull gives you wings, but no parachute...
