Chris woke up at 6 a.m., and it is now midnight. Chris feels able to drive home. According to the Pennsylvania Driver's Manual, how does this much time awake affect driving?
Correct answer: It impairs driving about as much as a blood alcohol level of 0.05 percent.
Why
Fatigue slows reactions, blurs vision and judgment, and can end in a few seconds of sleep that you do not notice. Teens who sleep less than eight hours a night have a higher crash risk. If you feel tired, the safe choice is to stop driving, rest, or let a rested licensed driver take over.
