Okay, I have to call “prank alert” here on your post ... the “sleeping in the middle of the road” thing made me curious, so I started googling ... and the only mention I can find of that is right here on this page! LOL!
Do you have a link for that stat of people dying from sleeping in the middle of the road? I sure would like to see it!

I recalled it as “sleeping” when the reality of these tragic human possums is more akin to “passed out.”
