Question 5767

If a driver starts to feel drowsy, they must...

  1. park the vehicle in a place where parking is allowed and sleep.
  2. increase speed to try to reach their destination as soon as possible.
  3. reduce speed and drive on the shoulder.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: park the vehicle in a place where parking is allowed and sleep.

The remedy for drowsiness is sleep. Park somewhere parking is allowed and sleep for about 20 or 30 minutes, like the driver in the image in a parking lot. Driving fast to arrive sooner gives you less time to react, and driving slowly on the shoulder does not get rid of drowsiness.
