159788~Driving drowsy is a problem—Drowsy Driver Awareness Day

reminder of the dangers associated with drowsy driving.
For the last 10 years, there have been an average of 100 people killed each year in California in collisions related to drowsy driving. The numbers seen in the article are most likely underreported. Many people will not admit to falling asleep, as that would make them legally responsible for the collision.
