If you feel fatigued while driving, what is the recommended course of action?

When experiencing fatigue while driving, the recommended action is to pull over and rest. Fatigue significantly impairs your ability to react quickly and make sound judgments, which are crucial for safe driving. Taking a break allows you to recover your focus and alertness, reducing the risk of accidents caused by drowsiness.

Using stimulants may provide a temporary boost, but they do not eliminate fatigue and can lead to a false sense of alertness. Continuing to drive despite feeling tired puts you and others on the road in danger. Similarly, simply turning on loud music might not effectively combat fatigue and may even distract you further. Prioritizing your safety and the safety of others by resting is the most responsible and effective choice.
