What effects does drowsiness have on a person while driving?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Drowsiness and fatigue seriously reduce the psychophysical abilities needed to drive safely. With drowsiness, information processing becomes much slower, which lengthens reaction time, delays decision-making when faced with any unforeseen event and multiplies miscalculations and maneuvering errors. Saying that a drowsy driver behaves more prudently is false, because their judgment is impaired. And claiming that the possibility of being distracted decreases is also false: lack of rest promotes lack of concentration and makes distractions appear much more easily.
