The RTMC’s Simon Zwane says drowsiness and distractions behind the wheel contribute to serious collisions.
"Physical and mental fatigue can impair reaction times, decision-making and attention seeking skills for safe driving.
“Drivers who are tired and mentally exhausted may overlook signs and misjudge traffic conditions."
