Wise, MD, a neurologist specializing in pediatric and adult sleep medicine at the Methodist Healthcare Sleep Disorders Center in Memphis, Tenn., provide an overview of teens and sleep, define sleep debt, highlight drowsy driving-related crashes involving young drivers, and offer solutions and preventative measures.
I once fell asleep while driving down a highway at 19 y o, woke up about 30 feet from a pickup truck braking in front of me. Parked at the nearest wallmart parking lot and slept for 3 hours before finishing my drive. Never again have I gotten behind the wheel if I felt tired.
Starting school later will not help. Kids will simply go to bed later. Instead - encourage folks to go to bed earlier.
Once of the worst sleep periods I had was just after getting out of the Army in 1968. I took a job as a computer operator for a large company. Operators worked rotating shifts: Week one was 8AM to 4:30PM, The next week was 4:00PM to 00:30AM, Third week was Midnight to 8:30AM. The fourth week was 'garbage' week where all three shifts were mixed. It was a very difficult thing to do.
Presentation dull, falling asleep
On the Bay Bridge accident, was the driver tested for alcohol?
