Question 5594
If you are going to take a long trip, what is advisable to reduce the chance of drowsiness while driving?
- Resting for at least 20 minutes every two hours or every 200 kilometers.
- Aiming the air vents directly at your eyes.
- Keeping the temperature inside the vehicle high.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Resting for at least 20 minutes every two hours or every 200 kilometers.
On a long trip, take a break of at least 20 minutes after 2 hours of driving or 200 km, even if you do not feel sleepy. If you're driving at night, in fog, or when already tired, stop more often. Heat inside the car makes you sleepy, and air blowing toward your eyes tires them out. Aim it toward your body or arms.
