It's not worth the risk. There's nothing wrong with pulling over, anyway. If any cop tries to tell you to move along, just say you're tired and would prefer not to drive in your state. He's not going to tell you to move.

Try bringing along a blanket, pillow and sign to put in your window if you can. The sign would just say that you're too tired or sick to drive.
