We know not to drive drunk, or impaired. Speeding is dangerous, and so is driving while distracted. But just as dangerous, though less talked about is drowsy driving.In this episode, we’re going to hear how one woman dealt with her sister’s death by becoming a victims' advocate for traffic safety. Jennifer Pearce will delve into the real dangers behind drowsy driving and how pushing ourselves to operate on less and less sleep isn’t just damaging to our health, but also to our safety. Alec Slatky will talk about some of the work AAA is doing to better understand drowsy driving, because as it turns out, we often don’t even know when we’re doing it.Resources:How To Avoid Drowsy Driving
