Late at night, your eyes keep going out of focus, you drift onto the rumble strips, and you cannot remember the last few miles. What do these signs mean?
Correct answer: You are close to falling asleep, and you cannot predict when sleep will come
Why
Fatigue slows your reactions, lowers your awareness and weakens your judgment, much like alcohol. Other warning signs include constant yawning, trouble holding your head up, wandering thoughts, tailgating and missed traffic signs. Drivers at higher risk include young people, shift workers, people who drive at night or alone, and anyone short on sleep. When the signs appear, find a safe place to stop.
