What can you do about highway
hypnosis'? First, be aware that
it
can
happen.
Then here are some tips:
Make sure your vehicle is well
ventilated,
with
a
comfortably
cool
interior.
Keep your eyes moving. Scan the road
ahead and
to
the sides. Check your
rearview mirrors frequently and your
instruments from time
to
time. This
can help you avoid a fixed stare.
Wear good sunglasses
in
bright light.
Glare can cause drowsiness.
But
don't
wear sunglasses
at
night. They
will
drastically reduce your overall vision
at
the
very time you need all the
seeing power you have.
If you get sleepy,
pull
off
the
road into
a
rest, service, or parking area and
take a nap, get some exercise, or both.
For safety, treat drowsiness on the
highway as an emergency.
As
in
any
driving situation. keep pace
with
traffic and allow adequate following
distances.
