Driving while drowsy is a potential risk for traffic accidents, so how to avoid drowsiness while driving?

Drowsiness while driving is dangerous for you, your passengers, and other road users. Here are some ways to help combat driver drowsiness:

Find a companion

Do not attempt to drive alone for long periods of time. If possible, bring a companion to drive when needed, allowing the driver to rest without interrupting the journey. Even companions who do not know how to drive can help the driver to chat, distract from drowsiness and make the trip more enjoyable.

Drink coffee

Drinking coffee will help the driver stay more alert. However, do not drink too much because it can lead to caffeine intoxication, affecting the driving process.

A nap before driving provides a source of energy that helps drivers stay alert throughout the journey. So, take a nap of about 15 - 20 minutes before "holding the wheel".

Chew gum

Chewing gum is also a way to prevent drowsiness while driving. When chewing gum, the mouth is constantly moving, helping to limit yawning and repelling sleepiness. You should prioritize mint-flavored gum because mint stimulates the nervous system, helping to keep the mind alert.

Take vitamins

Health care experts say that vitamins B and C help provide energy to the body. Therefore, a vitamin B and C pill after a meal will help drivers stay alert throughout the trip.

Prepare snacks

Snacks also help drivers reduce drowsiness. Snacks provide enough nutrients, helping the body stay awake while driving. However, you should not use foods high in fat, sugar, salt... because they can make drivers tired and full.

Listening to music

To avoid drowsiness while driving, drivers can listen to upbeat music and turn up the volume loud enough to keep themselves awake.

Occasionally roll down the window

When you feel tired, you can open the windows to let the outside air in. In addition to creating a cool feeling, the surrounding noise also makes the driver more alert.

Stop by the roadside

Stopping frequently along the way is the best way to stay alert while driving. Sometimes stopping just to stretch your legs, enjoy the view, and get some fresh air is also necessary.
