Fatigue Driving

• Lowers concentration levels and extends reaction time.

• Reduces hearing ability.

How to prevent driving fatigue:

• Take a minimum 15-minute break after driving for two hours and stretch.

• Don’t eat too much.

• Don’t stare at the centreline of the road all the time.

• Keep the vehicle well ventilated and at a comfortable temperature.

• Remain calm and do not panic; it will help you make rational, calm decisions.
• Try to brake in a straight line if possible.
• If you are driving at a high speed when the emergency occurs, try to avoid sudden steering since it may result in accidents that can otherwise be avoided.
• You can steer far more effectively at slower speeds. Slow down as much as possible to reduce the impact of a potential collision.
• Your main priority is to save lives. If an accident is unavoidable, take priority actions that ensure the safety of human life first.
• Turn on your hazard lights as soon as possible.
• Make sure you have emergency numbers and insurance numbers on hand at all times.
