I don't drink, so also no.

I have though, however, driven while way too tired. Tired to a point where I was as bad as an impaired driver would have been. Looking back at that now, should definately have stopped and got some sleep. Anytime I looked somewhere else, it took 2-3 seconds for my eyes to focus again, and I had to keep my mind awake by looking around.

That's probably why you shouldn't drive 18 hours in one day while towing a gooseneck trailer the whole way, after driving 6 hours the evening before, and getting only about 6 hours of sleep in between those two days.
