Night driving

Yeah i find stopping and walking around helps but sometimes your not able to. I noticed having my music up will keep me awake specially if im jamming to it lol. I still get tired a lot. I know i wont adjust over night but it takes alot out of me.

I used to be a night owl, but I have adjusted to getting up early and starting out between 2:00 and 4:00 a.m. That's not always possible, of course. I'm parked very near my receiver, can't go in till 7:00, so I'll probably be driving late (till 9:00 or 10:00) tomorrow.

The thing that helped me adjust was just the desire to get it there and maximize my hours. Some days I get very tired though. A little exercise with more frequent 5 or 10 minute stops seems to help the most.

Night driving

Thanks alot last shadow. I have to agree that its nice not having to deal with traffic. It just feels like im not getting use to it and that its taking forever for my body to adjust.

Daniel, I work for Shaffer pulling reefers n let me tell you I am a night owl, to b honest I now prefer driving nights, less traffic n no problem finding parking at any truck stop, I will tell you tho, the biggest hazard I constantly find is deer in d road n other little critters that's been my experience so don't think is a bad thing, once you get ur sleeping cycle adjusted you'll be fine, hell you might just like it, .....out
