Here\u2019s What to Do"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Andy Citrin Injury Attorneys, we understand the dangers of driver fatigue all too well after handling cases for many victims who were hurt by drowsy drivers. Unfortunately, many people don\u2019t realize that drowsy driving poses just as serious a danger as drunk or drugged driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep reading to learn how you can prevent fatigue-related motor vehicle accidents as well as what you can do if the worst happens and you or someone you love suffers injuries in a wreck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drowsy Driving Kills More Than 800 People Each Year<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to data from the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA), at least 824 people die each year due to fatigue-related crashes. However, this data comes from police reports, and many experts believe driver fatigue goes underreported. According to research from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, drowsy drivers might cause as many as 6,000 deaths per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many drivers don\u2019t understand how fatigue impacts their ability to operate a car or truck. When you\u2019re tired, you have a harder time making decisions, your response times slow down, and you become inattentive. In the worst cases, an overly tired driver can lose consciousness completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RELATED ARTICLE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywinshttps:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/blog\/why-is-texting-and-driving-still-a-problem-on-alabamas-roads\/\"><strong>Truck Driver Fatigue<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research suggests that operating a vehicle when you\u2019ve only had four or five hours of sleep poses the same crash risk as drunk driving. If you\u2019ve had less than four hours of sleep, it\u2019s as if you\u2019re driving with a 0.15 blood-alcohol content level \u2014 almost twice the legal limit. With that little sleep, you\u2019re 11.5 times more likely to crash your vehicle than if you were fully rested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can I Avoid Fatigue-Related Car Accidents?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While you can\u2019t always prevent a car wreck, you can take a few simple steps to reduce fatigue and give yourself the best chance of avoiding a crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><br><h3>Get Enough Rest Before Driving<\/h3><br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before you hit the road, make sure you\u2019re well-rested. While you may feel tempted to pull an all-nighter and get to your destination, this is never a safe choice. Instead, do your best to get a full eight hours of sleep before a scheduled trip and remember to take rest breaks along the way as needed. Remember, a hotel room is a bargain compared to the costs of medical bills and property damage after a vehicle wreck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><br><h3>Know the Warning Signs of Driver Fatigue<\/h3><br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some signs of driver fatigue are easy to identify. For most people, if they start yawning or <a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/blog\/corneal-abrasion-injuries\/\">their eyes feel heavy<\/a>, they\u2019ll realize that they\u2019re getting tired. However, other signs of fatigue are subtler. You might be getting drowsy if you \u201cmissed\u201d a few miles of your journey or passed your exit because your mind was wandering. Similarly, if you notice that your car is drifting or you\u2019re hitting the rumble strips, it\u2019s time to take a break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><br><h3>Assess Your Fatigue Risk<\/h3><br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some people run an especially high risk of drowsiness behind the wheel. For example, if you have a sleep disorder like sleep apnea, you\u2019re more likely to experience fatigue, even during the daytime. The same is true if you take certain types of sedating medications or work late or irregular hours. If you\u2019re at a higher risk of fatigue, make sure you give yourself plenty of rest breaks or even ask someone else to drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><br><h3>Know Your Limits and Speak Up<\/h3><br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We understand how tempting it can be to push the limits, especially if you have a schedule to keep or you\u2019re experiencing pressure from passengers to keep driving. However, you\u2019re always better off taking a break or calling it a night if you feel drowsy. And if you see someone else driving erratically or exhibiting signs of driver fatigue on the road, call 911 and let the operator know what you saw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, no matter how carefully you drive, you can\u2019t control other people\u2019s negligent behavior, and you might suffer injuries because someone else decided to keep driving in a fatigued state. Read on to learn what you can do if you get hurt in a wreck because of someone else\u2019s negligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Should I Do if a Drowsy Driver Hits Me or a Loved One?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re involved in a car accident with a fatigued driver, you need to protect yourself and your loved ones. First, call 911 and cooperate with the police as soon as they arrive. If the police give you permission to leave the scene, you should have a doctor evaluate you, even if you believe you only suffered minor bumps and bruises. Sometimes, you might not realize the severity of your injuries immediately after a crash since your body is full of adrenaline and some injuries take time to appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RELATED ARTICLE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/blog\/important-questions-ask-choosing-car-accident-lawyer\/\"><strong>Important Questions To Ask Before Choosing A Car Accident Lawyer<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you\u2019ve consulted a doctor, you should call an experienced attorney who knows how to handle fatigued driving cases. Often, drowsy drivers won\u2019t admit they were falling asleep at the wheel. This is especially true of commercial truck drivers, who sometimes cause crashes because they were breaking federal hours-of-service rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To keep our roads safe, the federal government sets strict rules that say how long a commercial truck driver can operate their vehicle without a break. However, trucking companies sometimes pressure their drivers to break these hours-of-service rules in the name of increased profits. Fortunately, electronic logs can often prove whether a truck driver complied with the federal rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we suspect fatigue caused a crash, the team at Andy Citrin Injury Attorneys acts quickly with our Rapid Response Protocol. Depending on the circumstances, our attorneys will preserve important evidence like log books, GPS data, medical information, and cell phone records, all of which can help establish a driver\u2019s time on the road and fatigue levels. After preserving and organizing all the relevant evidence, we\u2019ll work to identify everyone who was responsible for causing the wreck and fight to hold them accountable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Andy Citrin Injury Attorneys: Fighting for Injured Victims of Negligence in Alabama<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you or a loved one suffered injuries due to a drowsy driver\u2019s negligent or reckless conduct, the team at <a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"20384\">Andy Citrin Injury Attorneys<\/a> is here to help.
