Explanation
Drowsy driving is a serious hazard as it affects your vision and slows down your reaction time to hazards, increasing the risk of accidents. To prevent drowsy driving, take sufficient rest before driving and avoid driving until fully rested. It is also helpful to have a passenger and switch drivers when feeling drowsy. Taking regular rest stops, even if you are not tired, helps to break up long driving sessions and provides an opportunity to stretch and refocus, reducing the risk of fatigue-related accidents.
