Double R and I both seem to suffer these experiences...Must be something in the asphalt of the PA Pike....

When I'm SERIOUSLY TIRED, I begin to see overhead bridges that dont exist, small animals run across the road, and one night about a month ago, I think I saw the devil walking from the center barrier towards the shoulder of the road... :shock:

Needless to say, I pulled over...

Also, trying to cheat by keeping one eye open and one shut, just doesnt work..Next thing you know, both will be closed and you really dont want that. Its not worth risking the next 40 years of your career. Just pull over and take a nap.

Once, I thought the clutch was slipping and I wondered where I could have it adjusted. Turns out, I had missed a shift and was merely coasting.

When you look around and realize you can't remember how you got there? Time to stop. :idea:

When I start yawning and can't get my mouth to close! The yawn is over, but the jaws won't shut!

Also, about this time, I realize I'm off the cruise control and doing about 55 in a 75!! :shock:

That's when I pull over, cuz if I don't, the truck will do it for me!

This has happened to me TWICE. 5 of us hauled some trailers up into Iowa and were bobtailing back. I hadn't slept good the night befor and was a TAD BIT tired. As I looked at the back of the truck in front of me (it was dark) I swear that his tail lights, mudflaps and everything back there looked like a giant bat. The second time I was coming across I-40 just into Az from N.M. and I swear the big rock on the north side of the road had moved ACROSS the road.
