I've driven from Brisbane to Melbourne non-stop ( shared driving )
Was over 20 hours, and Dad nearly fell asleep driving while we approached Melbourne. Not good.
I took over again for the last hour, and was tired as hell too.
I wouldn't bother trying to do that non-stop again.

Nanaimo (Vancouver Island) to LA. Left at 3pm, ferry crossing of 1 1/2 hours, 1/2 hour nap around the Oregon/Cali border, inside Disneyland by 3pm next day. '94, some sections were 80mph. Worst part was the stretch between Frisco and LA, too straight for too long. 1700k's. Never again.
