Question 5278
Drowsiness can appear while driving and cause an accident...
- only after eating.
- only at night.
- if you have slept too little or poorly.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: if you have slept too little or poorly.
Sleeping too few hours or having interrupted sleep keeps your body from recovering, and you feel sleepy behind the wheel the next day. This can happen at any time, including during the day. The risk is higher after eating and at night, but those are not the only times.
