Driving Precautions

What Should I Always Do?
  • Drive at or slightly below the speed limit.
  • Do not turn on red. Use your turn signals.
  • Do not make unnecessary lane changes.
  • Consider taking a defensive driving course.
  • Always follow all traffic laws in your state.
How do I Know if I am Too Sleepy to Drive?
  • In my best judgement, I feel I am NOT safe to drive.
  • I do NOT feel alert. I feel groggy, like my head is in the clouds.
  • I feel that my reflexes are slow. I would unlikely NOT be able to make a sudden stop.
  • My head bobs when I am sitting quietly. I would be NOT be able to watch a long TV show or
    read a book without dozing.
  • I feel like I need to nap.
