My honest answer will be..yeah,I do.This has been a childhood habit of mine.Whenever I got up into a bus with my parents,I used to fall asleep. This has got one advantage also,that you don't get tired whatever distance you travel....LOL so,do you sleep too?

yes i do sometimes and its horrible. i don't know anyone on the bus and alot of strangers go on and off. but thats when i had a job i had to be on the bus by 7 a.m had to take two buses a 2 hour bus ride. i didn't realize i've could of got a job closer it was my first job so i just accepted anything. so i was always sleepy and bored so i fell alseep on a public bus all by myself sometimes. why not i was the last bus stop.

i catnap. it's usually not a good idea where i live to fully sleep,you'll probably get robbed if you do.plus the bus has some mighty uncomfortable seats.

Yes, I can actually sleep while on a bus, and occasionally do. My mother always thought it was odd how easily I could go to sleep in a moving, bumpy vehicle.

I have never lived in an area where i rode the bus, as in public transportation, so i don't know if i would be able to fall aslep then, but as a child when i had to ride the bus to school, or on field trips, i was always the one who would fall asleep easily. I dunno if it is just something about the vibrations and motion of the vehicle or what, but it always just happened. Even when i took the greyhound bus across counry to visit my family, i found i slept for a large portion of the almost two day trip!

Well, I do sleep on bus. I love long trips and sleeping is what I enjoy the most. Like what you've said when I am also like that. When I am tired I fell asleep instantly. The funny thing is when I am already close to the bus stop I automatically wake up. Haha It is was so funny because come to think of it, it is not comfortable to sleep in a bus. But I was totally sleeping all the way. I never had dreams or anything but I am sure I am sleeping. hahaha~ I just had backaches and neck pains afterward. But having a power nap in a bus is soo good~

I can't remember the last time I took a bus ride and I don't think I sleep in it. I can't do that, I might miss my stop. A friend of mine did took a ride, miss her stop and then brought back to the buss station. She need to take another to get back home, which she nearly missed again as she nearly slept again. Plus, it's scary to fall a sleep in a buss full of strangers.

if i am tired, i will definitely fall asleep. Especially if it is a comfortable charter bus. I would always fall asleep on the way to my softball games.
