When you live in Wayzata, MN it’s important to be safe behind the wheel. Thousands of accidents happen every year simply because people are driving drowsy. The CDC estimates that thousands of additional accidents happen, though they are not reported to the police.
Even if you have auto insurance, the amount of damage that can take place because of falling asleep at the wheel can be expensive. It can also cost you your life, or the life of others.
If you are feeling drowsy, you don’t want to get behind the steering wheel. What you do want to do is admit that you are tired and get someone else to drive you home, and even a taxi company can be called to help you out.
Whenever you are going for a long-distance drive, it’s good to have someone else in the car with you. They can help to keep you alert, and if they are a licensed driver, they can take over some of the driving responsibilities as well. By swapping off, you ensure that neither one of you get too tired.
It’s also good idea to stop driving after a few hours and take a break. Get out, walk around, and even drink something caffeinated. This will help to ensure you are aware of your surroundings once you get back behind the wheel.
Anything can happen on the roads of Minnesota and anywhere else. You want to be prepared and that means not driving drowsy. The last thing you want to have happen is to fall asleep behind the wheel and wake up just in time for an accident.
