~ 15 minutes. After being up for 5 straight days back in college, in the middle of the 3 hour drive home I was getting drowsy so I pulled over for a power nap.

Longest was probably upwards of 1-2 hours when I was a kid. I don't sleep well in the car, I find it very uncomfortable.

The gf and I had a power nap around 2am for 20 minutes after a Chinatown late night dinner. We woke up to.......... a parking ticket. I know the guy saw us sleeping in there too, we were under a street lamp. Probably tippy-toed around and slipped the ticket under the wiper blade.

Longest I've slept in a car I'd have to ask my parents, since I was probably an infant. Probably during a road trip to NYC or something. Longest I can recall is around 5 hours.

After a conference of jumping and dancing around all weekend. I fell asleep in KY and woke up in FL. Fourteen Hours.

Related note: I have also conditioned my body to sleep in moving vehicles as my family took car trips all the time as a kid.

Thats Toronto for you.

Sometimes I can't even see the damn signs - and they can be so complex in some parts of downtown.

You don't have any friends' places to crash at?

I'm shocked!

Yeah, I took a weekend trip to toronto with some friends. I went to park my car on a side street near the guest house I was staying at and each pole had 4 signs at different angles that said something ridiculous like only parking between the first and third tuesdays between april and november and two sets of weird hours. We looked at it said "What the F", parked my car there and started walking to the bar. 30 sec after parking my car a cop drives by, stops, puts it in reverse, pulls up next to us and begins interrogating us for looking suspicious.
The next morning there was a ticket on my car.

I sometimes crash in my car in between classes. Its the only place on campus that can be considered comfortable.

As a passenger in any vehicle, not long. I could never sleep in a moving car; too much of a control freak I guess. I don't like being a passenger period.

In general, overnight. I've arrived at campsites late and just crashed instead of dealing with the tent. In those cases, I was in a SUV or van.

In my 335? Never ever.

~4 hours in the school parking lot. Stayed up all night studying for exam. Got to school at 8 am for my morning class. Decided not to go and slept until noon, ate and then went to the class I had the exam in at 1. Was a good nap...

School's too cheap to buy some couches for you guys? We have an awesome lounge in our Business School with some comfy chairs. It's usually packed though. There are plenty of other places with comfy couches/seating areas to crash though.
