The main hazards of fatigued driving are: 1. Driver fatigue primarily involves fatigue of the nerves and sensory organs, as well as physical fatigue caused by prolonged maintenance of a fixed posture, which leads to poor blood circulation. 2. Fatigued driving is highly likely to cause traffic accidents. Driving fatigue refers to the phenomenon where a driver experiences physiological and psychological dysfunction after prolonged continuous driving, resulting in an objective decline in driving skills. Drivers with poor or insufficient sleep quality and those who drive for extended periods are prone to fatigue. Driving fatigue affects various aspects of a driver's attention, sensation, perception, thinking, judgment, will, decision-making, and movement.
