They're the ones. Easy to play. Plenty of practice and you'll be playing Last Post and Revellie on Anzac day.
Also good tongue strengthener(the ladies will love you for it)
Pull over and sleep .
As a indestructible 18 yr old I went out on a Saturday night then decided the next day to go visit a young lady (600km round trip ) . I had to get back in time for trade school on Monday so while I was buggered I thought I had to push through , I can still remember the window down , air con on ,loud music blaring , the blinks , yawns and head nods.
Of course the obvious happened , I woke up on the grass in the left heading towards some gum trees at 100 km , jerked the wheel right in a panick and ended up rolling 3-4 times and finishing on the other side of the road. ( getting chills thinking about it ) I was lucky I walked away and it was 11pm on a Sunday night on a quiet country road so nobody else got hurt .
Make matters worse my old man had to drive 50km to come and get me ( that was a great phone call ), mum gave me a lecture the next day , my first car was gone and I didn't get anywhere with the young lady 
What use to work for me was listening to talk back radio. As lame as that might sound I think it works because it engages your brain and you tune in to the conversation/topic thus increasing your alertness.
Problem Cure
Heated seats...... Turn off
Warm air con... Turn off
Cruise control.... Turn off
Cricket on the radio.. Turn off
Wind the window down , drive cool not warm and as mentioned previously if in doubt pull over and have a walk,stretch,smoke,drink,piss or sleep.
You fall asleep and kill yourself its entirely up to you but don't take out a family of 5 driving the other way...

I commute 2hrs x 4 days & I mostly listen to 612 or ABC radio national for this reason. Time goes fast & as a bonus you can learn something.
