Ouch, I've fallen asleep at the wheel back in my college days and I ended up destroying a mailbox. The scary part is the owner said he was just outside with his little girl playing in the front yard less than 5 minutes before it happened.
Always pulled over for a nap since, and ALWAYS wear a seatbelt.

OMFG


i have fallen asleep at the wheel like twice in 3 years of driving. not really fall asleep but not aware of whats happening around me. I almost 80% have my seat belt on, but after watching that i will have it on all the time.

You know what i hate when you are up and aware but you end up somewhere like at the mall or a store, and you forgot the whole drive there.

If I remember correctly , that was a shipping van or something for DHL or FED ex or something .. and insurance REQUIRES cameras in the cars at all times so they don't get gipped ...

I've seen that mpeg before...it's a hoax. What actually happened was static cling.

Why did he look at the camera right before the "accident".

Looks fishy to me.

Looks like that video came from a DriveCam. Some of their systems have a "rear view" camera which shows what's happening inside the vehicle in addition to the forward-facing camera that shows what's going on outside.

I have developed such a habit of putting on my seatbelt that even if I am in a parking lot, going from one store to another in the same complex, I still put my seatbelt on!
