Why do we tend to fall asleep when riding a vehicle ,train ,boat,plane,etc.?

We tend to fall asleep because our bodies are left in the same position and it causes us to get tired. The pace of the vehicle and the environment, including what's inside and out, plays a huge role as well.

because it's boring? usually when you're doing nothing and you're just sitting on a boat, plane..., we usually feel sleepy. another fator is the length of travel. When you are travelling for a long time, your body will be tired and you will eventually fal asleep.

it gets boring staying in one place...at least when you sleep you can dream yourself somewhere else
