For years I had a problem with fatigue while driving long distances on Interstates...including during the day.Looking back it was a miracle that I didn't kill myself and/or others.I wasn't drunk or under the influence of anything...it was entirely highway hypnosis.

But now I've discovered caffeine pills at Walgreen's and CVS.Problem solved.

Although I'm forced to admit that what I did was horribly stupid and irresponsible.

Caffeine

I consume 4-600mg a day

It’s great but has a crash

I tend to gulp it down

Get the awake buzz but an hour later I’m ready to rinse and repeat

One late winter night I was returning home from a long driving trip visiting family. My wife and daughter were asleep in the car and I was battling fatigue as we were getting closer to home. I got pulled over for somewhat erratic driving and was only quizzed about driving under the influence. After the officer looked in the car and seeing my family he cautioned me to take care and let me go. Needless to say between the shock of getting pulled over and the freezing night air, I was as awake and as alert as you could possibly be for the remainder of the way home.
