Drive instead.
If you are driving these days, some tips:
Make sure to get plenty of sleep before you leave. Tired driving can be as dangerous as drunkenous driving.
Try to split driving time with another passenger. You can keep an eye on each other, as well as catch a quick nap while you're off duty. If you do drive alone, put on the radio to help keep you alert.
At night, refrain from using cruise control. Having to concentrate on maintaining your speed will keep your mind stimulated, and help you keep awake.
If you can, consult a weather report before heading out, and try to design a route that will minimize the chance of inclement weather.
Be sure to check your tire pressure, fluid levels, and gas level before heading out on your trip.
Keep napkins, plastic ware, and a small cooler handy for meals "on the go." Also keep jumper cables, spare change for tolls, a first aid kit, a flashlight, a pillow, a blanket, a fire extinguisher, some kitty litter, a spare tire or donut, windshield wiper fluid, emergency flares, flourescent distress flag, and a hand crank radio in your car. If traveling in the winter, a shovel, windshield scraper, small broom, shelf stable snack foods, tow chain, extra medications, matches, small candles, and a electric lantern are essential.
Don't drive, just telecommute.
