It fell on me to drive the car load of five of us back to college, at six in the morning.<BR/><BR/>I dozed off, and woke up just as I was about to plow into the median divider on the freeway. The rest of my friends in the car were sound asleep.<BR/><BR/>I do thank God that He saved me from falling asleep and killing or injuring all of us. It is probably the closest I've ever come to actually dying.<BR/><BR/>I have subsequently been sleepy, but I do also pull of the side of the road and try to get some rest.<BR/><BR/>It's difficult in the US because there are many people who are robbed or killed in rest areas trying to get some rest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
