No you fvcking dumbass, that's why they made beds.

Stop posting, and the next time you are about to operate a vehicle while you are physically inept, please kill yourself.

If you're telling the truth, you do not deserve to be in the gene pool.

Driving without sleeping for 48 hours is pretty much the same as driving drunk, IMO. Bragging about it on a message board before you go out to do it is incredibly rude and stupid.

"Australian researchers tested 40 people to create a "blood alcohol equivalent'' for different levels of impairment from sleeplessness.

In one experiment, participants stayed awake for 28 hours. In the other, they drank alcohol every half hour until they reached a blood alcohol concentration of 0.10 percent. That's the drunken-driving standard in most American states.

Every half hour, the subjects took a computerized test of hand-eye coordination.

Results showed that after 24 hours of sleeplessness, participants were about as impaired as they were at the 0.10 percent level of blood alcohol. After 17 hours, they were about as impaired as they were with an alcohol level of 0.05 percent, which many Western countries define as legally drunk, the researchers said. "



If you are driving having not slept in 2 days you are an idiot, you are putting others at risk besides yourself.
