You say "casually admitted" as if this were an individual failing and not a shared experience amongst everyone who has ever driven regularly.

Back when I drove, I would regularly forget my entire commute because I'd already made it hundreds of times before and my brain just stopped committing any of it to memory.

    that doesn't change the fact that it's a fucked up phenomenon.
    "haha yeah isn't it funny that people operating 3-ton machines going 80km/h do so in a fugue state, so quirky :)"
