I alternate windows every few minutes as needed. It is a great diatraction from falling asleep and works like a charm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/falling-asleep-for-6-minutes-in-the-car-means#post-1004698 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 15:20:22 +0000 Lindsay05 1004698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No thats the worst!
