Refreshments of Sleepy Drivers

The Pakistan Daily Times reports about a study on refreshments of late-night drivers in their 20s and 40s. The tested methods were a 30 minute cat nap and a cup of coffee.

The participants underwent four highway driving tests, with at least one week between each. Compared with the drive on decaf, drivers of all ages performed better when they had caffeinated coffee or a nap – being less likely to let their car cross over the lane lines during the late-night drive.

The study shows that young drivers benefit more from a thirty minutes of sleep than the older ones. For older people the more effective option was to have a cup of coffee or other refreshing stimulant.
