Sleepy Driver Hotline... Live Operators To Help You Stay Awake.

The fact is, some people get tired behind the wheel, especially on a long trip.
When that happens, one of the best ways to stay awake is to talk to somebody. But what if it's late, and there's nobody else in the car? That's why there should be a service people can call specifically to help people stay awake.
The concept is pretty simple. For a small monthly fee, a call center will take your calls 24 hours a day, and stay on the line until you're fully awake.
The conversation itself isn't important, as long as it's somewhat stimulating, even to the point of being frustrating, which reminds me of this classic Monty Python sketch.
While I doubt anyone would start a calling service that starts arguments with the customers, the real point is to trigger some sort of emotional reaction or conscious thinking that breaks the hypnotic trance of staring at the road. The easiest thing is to engage the driver in a conversation that involves questions that can stimulate the driver.
If I was the operator, I'd start off with "So, what do you think of ___________?", using a polarizing name like Kanye West, Justin Bieber, Rush Limbaugh, Howard Stern, Kim Kardashian, etc.. It doesn't matter if people love or hate people them, either way, you've got one fired up driver that will not fall asleep.
