daytime sleepiness at boring/monotonous tasks

I am intrested in the topic of daytime sleepiness that comes hand-in-hand with monotonous tasks for me due to my ADHD and is really a terrible thing to experience. Boring highway drives can become life threatening this way. Boring tasks at work or boring meetings leading to falling asleep right away. (I sleep fast and enough; ~7-8h/d).
Since I got my ADHD diagnosis, I know where it comes from (being understimulated / low dopamine level) and what I can do about it: Movement, coffee to stimulate me, and hopefully medication anytime soon.
Anyone experiencing the same? Any suggestions to work around it?
