Drowsy driving is just as deadly as drunk driving, the National Road Safety Foundation, Inc. disclosed. And most drivers are not really aware of this fact. Some think that drowsy driving is not a big deal.

A recent study done by the NRSFI reflected that 60% of drivers felt tired while they were out for a drive. More than 33% of the lot was brave enough to share that they even fell asleep while driving. This just goes to show that drowsy driving is dangerous and is one of the major causes of crashes.

The NRSFI sent out a list of signs that all drivers have to watch out for:

• Difficulty focusing, with frequent blinking
• Daydreaming or not remembering the last few miles driven
• Head nodding
• Repeated yawning or rubbing eyes
• Drifting out of your lane, tailgating or hitting shoulder rumble strips

If you notice yourself with at least one of these signs, it would be best that you pull over and let somebody else drive you home instead.
