Sleeps like a log

A 70-year-old motorist did more than doze off behind the wheel on Friday morning.
Not only did the elderly driver fall asleep while driving on highway 22, he didn't even wake up after his unconscious ride was over.
Police were not impressed with the man's performance and confiscated his drivers license on the spot.
The man drove across the road while asleep, and into a garden before coming to a stop on a lawn. The car stopped, and the man slept on.
"This could have gone very badly. It was just luck he didn't hit someone," I suppose.
The 70-year-old will have to take a medical exam before reapplying for a new license. The man was not suspected of driving while intoxicated.
Sleep and drive is not the best combinations. I've tried it myself and I hit some trees outside the road. The car became completely and totally a wreck.
