Asleep at the Wheel? A Wake-Up Call for Drowsy Drivers Do you recognize any of these warning signs of drowsy driving? - You can’t remember the last few miles driven. - You hit a rumble strip or drift from your lane. - You yawn repeatedly. - You have difficulty keeping your eyes open and head up. - You tailgate or miss traffic signs. - You keep pulling your vehicle back into the lane. Being overextended at trying to “do it all” and “have it all,” often means operating on less than the optimal amount of sleep. With full-time work, domestic duties, a few minutes of exercise, picking up the kids from school, and commuting on congested roadways, there just aren’t enough hours in the day. So where do we get the precious extra hours we need to accommodate our busy schedules? That’s right—from the night. Sleep is a critical factor in highway safety. Drowsy driving causes 100,000 crashes which results in over 71,000 injuries and 1500 deaths each year. Getting good sleep on a regular basis is the most effective way to combat drowsy driving.

Being overextended at trying to “do it all” and “have it all,” often means operating on less than the optimal amount of sleep. Use our poster to help remind employees, colleagues, and friends of the importance of getting enough sleep.
