Why don't we snore while awake?

Asked by AstroChuck (37609points) December 12th, 2009 from iPhone

As my wife began drifting off while riding beside me in the passenger seat, she snored, just once, loudly and abruptly woke herself up. I, being who I am, laughed at her. I then started wondering why we only seem to snore when we are asleep, or when in a half-sleep, but not when awake.
Any thoughts on this?
