An overdose of a muscle relaxer put a driver to sleep, resulting in a one-car crash in Norfolk, State Police say.

Troopers say 46 year old Francis Browning went off State Route 56 and hit a utility pole early Sunday afternoon.

Several witnesses said Browning had been weaving into oncoming traffic just before he went off the highway.

Browning told troopers he'd taken a larger-than-prescribed dose of muscle relaxant medication and had fallen asleep.

He was charged with driving with ability impaired by drugs, failure to keep right, reckless driving and failure to notify the DMV of a change of address.

Browning was released on tickets returnable in town of Norfolk court.
