This is my experience.

My brain doesn’t have to do anything. So it gets bored and then sort of shuts down.

I fall asleep on all those transport methods because it’s soothing motion, noises and lack of any cognitive work required to survive.

Same as symphony or MRI machine. Just fall asleep with nothing to don
