I’m moving across the country in a few weeks and am trying to plan my route as I’ll be driving a moving van with a car towed behind it. The entire drive will be 16-17 hours.

Google maps seems limited for searching everything I’d want to take into account for the route (pull through gas stations, height requirements, avoiding mountain highways, etc.) and was wondering if anyone knew of a better way to plan out the trip?

    More like WHEN* you accidentally fall asleep at the wheel.

    If you’re gonna be doing it in one go, make sure your route has plenty of shoulder space. If you start to feel drowsy; pull over, get up and out, try some snacks + water, but most importantly walk around your vehicle.

    It gives your brain something to focus on, and arleast for me, gives me another hour of not gonna die driving!

        I believe its actually worse than drunk driving, so really let that thought seep in. Its not worth the gamble, best case only you get hurt. Worst case…
