It’s important for Utahns to recognize that the body takes time to adjust when losing an hour on Sunday. Here are some tips to avoid drowsy driving:

  • Make sure you are awake and alert before driving/walking/biking.
  • If you experience sleepiness while driving, pull over to a safe place and take a power nap.
  • You can reduce your risk for daylight saving-induced drowsiness by resetting your internal body clock slowly. For the next two nights, set your alarm clock for 15 minutes earlier and go to bed 15-30 minutes earlier than usual. Be active and enjoy the weekend so it will be easier to fall asleep earlier.
