Tired? Don’t drive on autopilot. It’s Drowsy Driving Prevention Week —a reminder that getting behind the wheel means being fully awake, alert, and focused on the road.
Feeling sleepy? Take it seriously. When traveling on highways served by the NHDOT Safety Patrol, sponsored by GEICO be sure to get enough sleep before driving, avoid driving during your normal sleep hours, and if drowsiness hits while you’re on the road, pull over somewhere safe and take a break.
Keep your eyes on the road and watch for warning signs:
• Frequent yawning or heavy eyelids
• Drifting from your lane or hitting rumble strips
• Missing exits or traffic signs
• Not remembering the last few miles of your drive
It's also Crash Responder Safety Week, so please Down, Over, and stay alert when approaching roadside incidents!

Don't let the sun turn your commute into a nightmare!
Low-angle sunlight can create intense glare, making it difficult to see the road, other vehicles, and traffic signals. Slow down, increase your following distance, and use your sun visor to help manage the glare.
Stay alert and keep your eyes on the road!

When you're behind the wheel, taking your eyes off the road to check your phone can have serious consequences. Don't let a quick glance turn into a real-life nightmare.
