I feel like the combined risk of dying or getting arrested versus just dying makes the sleepy option more attractive. Also, just get a box o' joe from Dunkin' Donuts and go wild.
cass
after reading your opinion i agree but the again if you were driving 200 miles and didnt get caught chances are your nt going to get caught
Simon
Actually, if you are driving while you are so tired you can't safely operate your car, you can be arrested for reckless driving even if you're stone cold sober.
Nizar Tajdin
You are right. But I have driven both drunk and sleepless. Drunk doesn't affect my mental alertness that much. But being sleepy almost caused me an accident a few times. Also, it doesn't say at what speed.

3 day gaming session and end it with a 200 mile joy ride in GTA :)
zombiethoughts
I've done both, but I regularly go 3 days without sleep.

MeGustaL0T
Pull Ova and Sleep. Then wake up and go. Pretty Simple and plus there are like 60+ Rest stops on 200 miles of road.
MR.POTATO
200 miles os enough to get to my house andit never said i got in aacccident
Angela Rae
honestly, driving drunk is safer. after 72 hours you are straight up hallucinating. speaking from experience.
Johan Persson
You are actually a MUCH better driver when you are drunk then when you are tired.
Common Sense
Drive 200 miles drunken on GTA.
FSK95
I would just hit the hay or pull over.
Deadpool_Derpz
Yea cuz if u can be awake for 6 days, I'm pretty sure u can stay up for like 45 minute
Octalpath22
You would be getting arrested either way for reckless driving
Crackers
it doesn't say all at once and you can take pills or supplements that keep you awake not to cure your drunkedness
sourcupcake123
just 24 hours of no sleep is like a 0.1 blood alcohol DUI. So, 72 would be much worse, whereas the drunken limit...

HOW IS THIS EVEN A QUESTION ? DRINK COFFE N RED BULL AND YOU'RE GOOD TO GO FOR A MONTH AWAKE or you'll just have a stroke...
Cuetech
I value my life and I want to stay out of prison than two days of sleep
Alya
Your right
Ask Master

yo fat mother
this means you have a car that can go 200 more miles more then the speed limit
Ahmed
Doesn't specify how fast. It only gives the distance
Donald Trump
Just take caffeine pills, drink Red Bull or something.
KittyMastah2
I see your comments everywhere!
ABritishFellow
doesn't say you can't sleep before hand, stay awake for three days sleep, then drive. Your still driving after you stayed up. loopholes
Max24

Ethen Hopkins

Just pull over and sleep ....
Christopher Ledger
You can’t die because then you wouldn’t drive 200 miles, so if you want to be up 4 72 hours go for it
Jacob Ragequit Smith
if you were that tired midway through you will die

The police would probably understand more. That is, if it's just from working or something like that and not being high on meth.
Angela Rae
the only way to be up for 3 days is stimulant abuse, at which point you are hallucinating from sleep deprivation. imjussayin
Jon Viv
Angela, staying awake for 3 days is nothing to me and I don't use any sort of stimulants to do it. Some people just don't sleep. lol
Zack
Drunk it only gets better as you get closer - tired it gets much worse

after 72 hours id probably pass out on the wheel
kieradee0526
take a shit ton of espresso shots
Dr. Jay
caffeine doesn't make you less sleepy, it will just take you longer till you're falling asleep. so you would still be super sleepy, slow, and with shitty reflexes.
Nagami-Stages
It goes much faster when drunk.
Brian
I actually think this option is safer in my case.
ViviFFIX
But then with drink you risk being pulled over and arrested as well as death whereas sleep deprived you only risk death...

Nobody says u drive on public road..

Being intoxicated can also have the affect of drowsiness among many people.
Connor
Coffee can offset sleepiness, but it's very hard to offset drunkenness
Joshua Troy Holdaway
It's been proven driving drowsy is more dangerous than driving drunk.
Epic808
it doesn't say you are tired or drowsy. You've already been awake for 72 hours, is 3 more going to hurt that much? Just drink a monster. "Oh that's not healthy" Neither is drinking alcohol...
Dr. Jay
@Epic808 : 1. "It doesn't say that you're tired or drowsy." - well I want to hear you saying that you are not tired after being awake for 3 full days. 2. "You've already been awake for 72 hours, is 3 more going to hurt that much?" - First of all, it get's worse for every 10 mins that are passing in you're still awake. Second of all, The point is not that you have to stay awake for a couple more hours, but you also have to drive a vehicle in that time. 3. "Just drink a monster." - Caffeine doesn't make you less sleepy, it just extends the time till you'll fall asleep. meaning that all of your actions and reaction would still be hella slow.
Alexander Caffrey
253 thousand people don't even know how bad sleep deprivation of 72 hours is. I would rather drive 200 miles drunk ten drive 3 days sleep deprived. if you think about it its a bigger risk driving while falling asleep every minute and waking up with a close call, you would get into a car accident driving sleep deprived that long, I would know.
Jesuisunsinge
It depends on how well you can handle sleep deprivation to be honest. If you get into a car drunk and drive for 200 miles you will probably crash and die anyway
HaileyBailey2024
How do you get the picture on your picture thing next to your name?
Fergus
You're five times more likely to be in a car accident when you're tired than drunk.
ಠ_ಠ
so,...you chose to be tired
kpoirier
Your stat comes from the amount of drivers on the road. More people drive tired than drunk.
John
That not true i know that for a fact
DerpyTurtle
So pull over, lock the doors, go to sleep, then continue your journey. Boom.
Andrew Schwartz
It would be way more fun.
Marvin
I'll just pull over
Greg
some people have obviously never been up for 72 hours
pulp
If you dont slepp over 72h you die so i prefere drive after a good get27
jaml96
i drive 10 miles, then sleep for like 9001 hours, then drive 190 miles.
ManOnLedge
If you don't sleep for more than three days you get severe hallucinations and you pretty much lose your mind by being awake any longer than that. Your death would be guaranteed.
Skylor
actually, i have never had hallucinations from sleep deprivation, but maybe i am just really good at staying awake without problems
Toms
You drive worse when your sleepy, not when you are drunk. Mythbusters tested that.
jar
listen to some loud music and i'll never fall asleep
Jared Santiago
Whats the difference?
Jessie Reyna
drive really slow the first miles till you are over your drunkenness, you can't fight sleep that easy
Vession
Drive real slowly.

Deathbot3000
you would still crash from nodding off, at least a high speed you have adrenaline
magical ronicorn
But I can sleep gay
UseThisToAddressMe
I can use strong stimulants like amphetamine to keep myself awake. It's actually common practice among truck drivers.
RyanScott
A 200 mile trip would suck but think about it, 200 miles is only like a 3 1/2 hour drive if you're on the highway. Sure, it would be agonizing after not getting any sleep but it's not like you're traveling across the country. (Also, I voted wrong)

.......SUPRISE......
Loopholes are awesome the question says above the drunken limit doesn't say you are drunk
Okmrbob
what? You saying you can be above the drunk limit to be seen as drunk driving but not be drunk
Epic808
what he meant was that the legal blood intoxication levels in almost every state (America) is .008. That's about 1 or 2 beers (depending how strong) or only 1 shot of anything more than 30 proof. 1 shot of anything more than 60 proof is already legally too much, though most drinkers don't feel anything unless their blood intoxication level is .018+, unless you are a light weight. On a technical level, it doesn't take that much before you are over the limit, but it is still illegal. on the other hand, the other option doesn't say I have to be tired either. I've been awake for 72 hours already, 3 more wont hurt, less if I'm speeding. I can just take a Monster to keep me awake for that.
Papi Harpy
But you can have a self-driving car and bring some relaxing tunes,a pillow,and sheets. BOOM! Blew your mind,right?
txag2011
I've done exactly this before. Save for the fact i was on empty Texas roads and had a monster.
DrCrazyFishMan1
go to sleep and complete the journey in the morning...
Ipurtle
According to the question you have to drive while having been awake for 72 hours. So you can't sleep. I've also driven after being awake for only 48 hours and I was micro-sleeping at the wheel so much I had to get my friend to drive the rest of the way back.
Eddy Martinez
where were you Ipurtle??
Nick B.
You would eventually sober up. But if you hadn't slept, it would just get worse.
mariothedog
If I fall asleep and die i'm sure I would die fast enough that I wouldn't feel the pain.

ShrimpinBakedPotato
I stay up 72 hours habitually and function on a daily basis regardless.
Joe
After being awake for 72 hours I would go to sleep. Then i would drive since its still techniqly after 72 hours of no sleep
