Explanation
Drowsy driving is especially dangerous for those who are sleep-deprived, driving long distances without rest, commuting long hours, or driving at night. To stay safe, make sure to get enough sleep, schedule regular rest stops, and avoid alcohol or medications that can cause drowsiness. If you feel drowsy while driving, recognize that you are close to falling asleep and may not be able to predict when it will happen. Find a safe place to pull over and take a break at the first sign of fatigue.
