I commute on the bus every day, and often see freshmen off to their new offices and little kids going to kindergarten. One morning, I saw a kid doze off on the bus. Poor little tike was obviously really tired and looked like he was going to miss his stop. But somehow he woke up just in time, and got off at the right stop. Amazing. He's definitely got the Japanese habit of being able to take a nap on the ride, though he is only 5 or 6 years old!
I believe it's one of those Japanese habits, being able to fall asleep while commuting -- just like bowing your head when speaking on the phone, even though the other person can't see you. Yes, if
you live Japan too long, you too will start to fall asleep on the train....
