Driver A is 90 minutes into a 3-hour highway trip and plans a break at the 2-hour mark. Driver A now yawns again and again, drifts toward the edge line, and cannot remember the last few miles. What should Driver A do?
Correct answer: Leave at the next exit or rest area to nap for 15 to 20 minutes, or switch drivers.
Why
Fatigue slows decisions and affects vision, and the manual compares a driver who has been awake for 18 hours to a driver with a BAC of 0.05%. No roadside test can measure drowsiness, so the decision to stop belongs to the driver. A break every 2 hours helps to prevent fatigue, but it does not replace a stop when warning signs appear.
