A lack of sleep negatively impacts your health and your ability to drive. Drowsy driving is just as dangerous as drunk or impaired driving.

Drowsy Driving is Impaired Driving

A lack of sleep negatively impacts both your overall health + your ability to drive.

Regular sleep disruption and fatigue can lead to low energy, difficulty focusing, poor motivation, and slower response times. That exhaustion can then lead to swerving, tailgating, poor judgment, blurred or reduced vision, or even falling asleep behind the wheel.

Drowsy driving is just as dangerous as drunk or impaired driving. The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety estimates that 328,000 drowsy driving accidents occur annually. Don’t become another statistic. Protect yourself and others on the road by getting plenty of rest, avoiding medications with drowsiness as a potential side effect, and never driving if you’re physically or mentally exhausted. Call a rideshare or ask a friend/family member instead.
