Resource Spotlight: Fatigued Driving & Safety

If you read my earlier blog post about sleep hygiene, you know how much of an impact it has on mental health and wellness. But it’s also very much tied to safety of both you and those around you. Especially while driving. That is why I am sharing this awesome resource from Chopra & Nocerino about fatigued driving.

Something that might seem “meh” in the moment can prove dangerous and even fatal in the blink of an eye. Click the button below to read through their resource on fatigued driving, micro sleeps, statistics, and more.

“Driving is an essential part of modern life that many take for granted. Many of us drive daily, going to and from work, picking our kids up from school, and traveling to various appointments. 

However, driving a vehicle while fatigued—even for a short distance—is dangerous for you and everyone else on the road. Driving while fatigued can lead to severe accidents, injuries, and even fatalities. Recognizing the risks of drowsy driving helps you take appropriate measures to safeguard yourself, your passengers, and others on the road.”

Thank you to Chopra & Nocerino for reaching out to share this resource!
