Video of a man “straight snoozing going 75 mph on the interstate, letting his Tesla do the work” has gone viral after being posted to Twitter on Tuesday by a musician named Seth Blake.

The video, which the Wage War guitarist says was shot in California by his fiancé from the passenger seat, shows a Tesla Model 3 being driven near Los Angeles by a man with his hand on the steering wheel and his head slumped to the side, resting against the seat.

"We were near or around him in traffic for about 10 minutes before we lost him.

He was going about 75 mph for the first five minutes before we hit LA stop and go traffic for the last five (which felt a little safer)," Blake told Fox News Autos.

"We eventually lost him, but he was asleep pretty much the whole time.

I saw him open his eyes once to look around, but he quickly dozed back to sleep."

I'm waiting for the video of the Tesla driving down the highway at 75 with no one driving it, because it's been commanded to pick its owner up somewhere.

Maybe he had a little midget steering from below.

When I was 16, my dad let me drive alone from Phoenix to L.A. By the time I got to LA is was so tired I started to fall asleep at the wheel while I was on the freeway. It’s been more than half a century and I can still remember one dream I had. God was watching over me that day.

Our new Honda is about 1/2 to driving itself on a freeway. The adaptive cruise control will slow down and brake if a car in front slows or is stopped and the lane-keeping feature actually will steer the car around curves.

See, if he was “gay snoozing” instead of “straight snoozing”, the cops might have been charged with a hate crime.

Not the two sandwiches from her picnic, or the few fries from her happy meal?

Reminds me of an old cowboy movie where the cowboys go into a bar and get passed out drunk. The barkeep has them thrown into the back of their wagon slaps the horse’s rear-end and it takes them home.

That too, but the Zoolander reference was the first thing that came to mind given the gas station locale.

Maybe she was flirting. Today’s version of ‘a lady drops her lace hankerchief and waits for a gentleman to recover it for her. They share a joke, a greeting, one thing leads to another ... Next scene, both are waking up in bed together!”
Yes, I know. Pure fantasy.
