In your health's best interest and for travelling safely, we recommend that you consider the following before embarking on a trip
• Make a detailed plan of your trip and check your car safety.
• Consult your physician if you suffer from a chronic disease.
• Check the side effects of drugs as they can make you sleepy or slow down your reaction time.
• Don't drink and drive as alcohol impairs your driving ability - your reaction time may become slow and the judgement of risk seriously affected.
• Avoid driving between midnight and 6am as this is when one's body clock is in a daily throng and when one can easily fall asleep.
• Avoid even short drives in the middle of the afternoon during heat spells.
• Wear clothes made of light fabrics that can absorb sweat.
• Take a short fifteen-minute break every two hours; while taking a break, have a light snack (eat light meals and drink a lot of water and soft drinks)
• If you feel tired or sleepy while driving, stop at the nearest pull-up and rest for at least 15 20 minutes.
• Always use a seat belt; young children have to be placed in child car seats.
• Obey traffic lights and road signs; reduce and adapt your speed in accordance with road and weather conditions; obey the speed limit; keep your driving distance; observe and anticipate pedestrians, children, cyclers and bikers
