How to Relieve Physical Fatigue While Driving

[SanEmmett]

Adjust your visual focus When driving for long periods, avoid staring continuously at the center line of the road. Shift your visual focus and, when safe, quickly glance in other directions. Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead when driving at high speeds. Lemon to activate the mind and body Keep a lemon within easy reach. When fatigued, lightly scratch its peel and take a deep breath to inhale its refreshing aroma, which helps to invigorate the mind. If you prepare a few lemon slices, taking a sip of their tangy flavor will surely give you a quick energy boost. Get your body moving If driving long distances, make sure to take regular breaks. After stopping, get out of the car and move your body. If it's inconvenient to exit the vehicle, take the opportunity to stretch your neck and shake your shoulders while seated. Performing small movements in the car can help rejuvenate your energy. Use sound to wake yourself up Turn on the radio and listen to music—preferably something uplifting rather than overly soothing. Alternatively, you can listen to jokes, crosstalk, or comedy sketches, which don’t require too much focus and can help keep you alert while driving.
