brianthainess Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 A bend, a curve, downhill, same old same old. Changing down a gear and off the throttle is just to much like real driving skills, and requires a bit of effort. They don't need any pride in driving coz they are the best drivers especially, if they can get there 5 min earlier that proves how wonderful they are init.

Some different ones can be found on Amazon https://binge.co/what-are-the-best-sleep-detection-systems-for-cars Does that mean the driver has to close his eyes before it works? I was recently travelling from upcounty and the van was doing about 100 Km/hour and then I noticed that it had slowed right down to about 60 Km/hour and we were slowly crossing lanes ( I could see the speedometer) and when I looked in the mirror the driver's eyes were wide open, but his senses had completely gone. he was just staring into nothing. I coughed loudly and he woke up and was back to normal ( for 2 or 3 minutes). Luckily it was the end of the journey and we hit the Bangkok traffic. I have complained to my boss many times about the drivers falling asleep, but nothing ever happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
