On long lorry journeys, what helps reduce the risk of fatigue?

Correct answer

By stopping and resting at regular intervals.

Plan regular stops and rest. As preventive advice, break the drive at least every two hours or 200 kilometres, sooner if tiredness or conditions require it. If sleepy or fatigued, stop safely and rest rather than waiting for the next interval. Adequate sleep before travel is essential. Hydration and a comfortable temperature complement rest but do not replace it. Also comply with legally applicable driving, break and rest requirements.
