Ways to avoid fatigue (1) • Plan: - your trip with a good night‟s sleep (ie, 7 or 8 hours uninterrupted sleep) beforehand - to not travel for more than 8 – 10 hours in any one day - to take regular breaks (at least every 2 hours for 15 minutes or more) - to start your trip early in the day, and try to not drive into the night. The chances of crashing are much higher at night. - to stay somewhere overnight so you can arrive alive – even if it is the next day.
Ways to avoid fatigue (2) • Be aware of the temperature in the vehicle and check the freshness or recirculation of the air • Eat well-balanced meals at usual meal times (avoiding fatty foods) • Don‟t drink alcohol before driving • Check what prescription medicines you are taking – some can cause drowsiness. • Share the driving if possible. • If during driving you feel tired take a POWER NAP • (no more than 20 minutes)
