„ Driving when tired or sleepy
When you are tired or sleepy, your reaction will
be delayed and your perception, judgment and
attentiveness will be impaired. If you drive
when tired or sleepy, your, your passengers’
and other persons’ chances of being involved
in a serious accident may increase.

you should make periodic rest stops to refresh your-
self before continuing on your journey. When possible,
you should share the driving with others.

legally be used while driving.
