    I drove from Albuquerque NM to Tacoma WA in two days by myself. That one was pretty rough.

    I generally go off of what the GPS says because time is a blur for me unless I take specific note.

        Not who you asked, but toward the end of a long drive, absolutely. White line fever becomes a huge risk for me, personally, after 5-6 hours.

        For that particular drive I was on Adderall and smoking a lot of weed so hyper focused paranoia prevented that. However, when I was following tail lights at 70mph through the mountains in a downpour and the windshield wiper came off, the pucker factor was very high.
