but after being up for 23.5 hours, & almost 1/2 of them driving I’m a half hour from home. I’m car sleeping at the truck stop for the night.

Hope you don’t bump your shifter into neutral and accidentally take off your parking brake in your sleep! :P

Smart. After dozing off and drifting into a median a while back( no wreck thankfully ), I now have NO compunction about pulling over and napping. I’ll down a caffeine shot & set phone timer for 25 min. Works like a charm!

It takes about 20 min to kick in, so I awake refreshed and ready to haul my carcass back to the shop.

No mate it’s a great and safe thing to do.

Far better than risking your life and other road users lives by driving tired.

Your in a truck stop so you should be much safer than parking on a public highway or corner of a supermarket car park.

Just be safe, ideally you should have a carbon monoxide alarm if your going to sleep in the car for any length of time.

Take care.
