Explanation
When you are behind the wheel, fatigue is dangerous, and can result in a decreased level of alertness, slower reaction times, decreased coordination and impaired judgment. Drowsy drivers are more likely to make mistakes, such as failing to notice road signs or misjudging the speed of other vehicles. Avoid driving when you are feeling drowsy, or take a break if you become tired or sleepy while driving.
