As general guidance, how many hours of sleep do most adults usually need to feel rested?

Correct answer

Usually 7 to 9 hours, depending on individual needs.

Usually 7 to 9 hours, although individual needs and age can vary. Sleep quality and continuity also matter: reaching that number does not guarantee fitness to drive. Do not drive when drowsy, and consult a healthcare professional if it persists despite rest. Coffee, other stimulants or a brief break do not replace the sleep you need.
