I once zoned out of driving for a solid 5 minutes on my way home from work as a teen because my brain didn’t equate heavy machinery with car. Got onto highway…turning off of highway. Nothing in between. Needless to say, I’ve never made that mistake again.
I mean, it would be better off to say “motor vehicle” or at least include that with “heavy machinery”, but chances are this would reduce use for a lot of medications when people need to drive to/from work etc so it gives them convenient out lawsuit-wise

Interesting profession
Long hours, always underappreciated, also thought pretty highly of myself too for someone with very little work experience
This happened to me on a regular basis for a couple years, just sans medication.
Coming to in the parking lot or badging in and realizing you have no idea what happened between getting in the car and now.
3am start times with a 20min drive will do that to you.
