It happened twice to me.
1. I was driving to the beach, a road that I know very well, but suddenly had a confused feeling, as if I woke up and didn't know where I was. I could not think of the exact location I was in that moment, but knew it must have been somewhere on the way to the beach.
2. I was driving again and instead of driving around the roundabout, I drove straight on into the wrong direction. Only after a while I realized that I was on the wrong road and couldn't explain why this happened, as I had the same "wake-up" feeling again.
Both instances are similar, as it seemed to affect my immediate STM (short-term memory) and how a few second I didn't know where I was. However, the 2nd instance was different, as I could after a while trace my way back to the moment when I passed the roundabout that I should have used, so I actively remember driving by it.
Both times, I was sober, had enough sleep and had taken no drugs.
