A recent National Sleep Foundation study discussed on 'Good Morning America' showed that 37 percent of all drivers have fallen asleep at the wheel, and over 60 percent have driven while drowsy. In one year, 100,000 crashes involving drivers asleep at the wheel account for 1,500 deaths. Aside from the health problems associated with getting too little sleep, being sleepy also represents a serious safety issue for a wide variety of people, from semi truck drivers and pilots to ordinary people running errands in their car. According to some, the problem of sleepy drivers rivals that of drunk drivers. Driving while drowsy slows your reaction time, just like driving while under the influence. Similarly, drivers who are tired may have a difficult time paying attention to the road.
Have you ever fallen asleep while driving your car? You've certainly heard about crashes involving sleeping drivers, which make the news seemingly every week. Although it is more common among those working the graveyard shift or driving for long period of time, anyone who doesn't get enough sleep each night is at risk. Millions of Americans drive while drowsy every day, putting themselves and everyone else on the road at risk. You may not realize how tired you are until you get behind the wheel. Most drivers have experienced the tiring effects of staring at the lines in the road mile after mile, especially after dark. Particularly if you're alone in the car, it can be difficult to stay alert, especially for long trips.
If you are scared of the danger of falling asleep at the wheel, there are several different devices designed to keep you awake during the critical time you are on the road. The Nap Zapper is worn around the ear. When your head starts to nod as you doze off, a loud alarm wakes you up, alerting you to the problem and keeping you awake. The Nap Zapper is a simple and inexpensive way to prevent accidents caused by driving while drowsy. This Anti-Drowsy alarm could save lives, especially when worn by truckers and others who spend a large portion of their lifetime behind the wheel. Don't wait to be awakened by the sound of a honking horn in the oncoming lane of traffic � the Nap Zapper can awaken you before you drift across lanes of traffic or cause an accident.
Whether you wear the Zap Zapper or not, stop every 100 miles during your trip. If you feel drowsy, pull over and get some rest. Even a 20 minute nap will help, although of course a full night of sleep is preferable. Don't start your trip at night, when you will be most tired. On long trips, take turns driving or plan out your nighttime stops. Consider postponing your trip if you don't feel awake enough to drive. Signs that you are too tired to drive include yawning, difficulty keeping your eyes open, feeling like you need a cup of coffee, or trouble remembering the last few miles you have driven.
