I have a trip to a border in Chanthaburi coming up. Fortunately I'll be taking a 6 seat shuttle van so it can recline a bit although not fully. The ride will happen during my sleep hours (daytime in Thailand) so I'll be trying my best to sleep. In past van rides I have not been successful but maybe a 6 seater will make things a bit easier than a 10 seat configuration.

 

Do you guys have any tips on sleeping through these 8 hour (4 each way) van rides? The hardest part is not the shaking so much as the difficulty of being in a bad sleep posture. At home I am mostly a side sleeper.

Noise cancelling earphones connected to a boring audiobook,or podcasts to seminars on quantum mechanics LOL  (plenty of them on youtube) does the trick for me on planes.

Definitely fasten your seat belt.. 

And I would stay awake and be alert.. Never trust these drivers, they micro sleep too often..

Get three inter tubes, small car or tractor size, swim tubes may be good as well.

One for your hips, One for your mid section, and One for your Head.

Regulate the Air Pressure for comfort. Be sure to fasten seat belt, and your good to go.

 

Rest assured that if accident occurs  and you are thrown from vehicle,

You will be ready to Rock an Roll.

It would appear that having read the post heading my initial thoughts and reactions have been covered adequately, don't do it, comes to mind.

 

But if you have to please report in and let us know you made it both ways without (too many) incidents, good luck ????

I'd only travel in one asleep so that when I die I don't see it coming.

When I die, I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and shouting like the passengers in the van he was driving ????
