Explanation
Teenagers should aim to get at least 8 hours of sleep each night to avoid the risk of drowsy driving crashes. When you don't get enough sleep, your cognitive abilities and physical functioning are compromised. Lack of sleep can lead to slower reaction times, impaired judgment, reduced vision, and difficulties with concentration and memory. Teenagers who consistently sleep less than 8 hours are at a higher risk of being involved in vehicle crashes.
