They say “look out for the other guy” when you’re driving . . . because he might be napping.
April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month. And a poll for it found one in seven Americans have fallen asleep at the wheel before. 14% admitted it’s happened at least once.
Here are the top four things we do to stay awake . . .
1. Drink something with caffeine. 63% do it when feeling tired behind the wheel.
2. Crank the RADIO, 62%. The sound of our grating voices will keep you alive.
3. Roll down a window or blast the A/C, 58%.
4. Talk to someone on the phone, 28%.
59% said they DO pull over to rest sometimes, which is what you SHOULD do.
