Just over a quarter (27 percent) choose a quick stop to buy a cup of coffee, which is a very popular way for drivers to get rid of tiredness. While 17 percent stop to have a rest until they feel energetic again. Mr Havenhand added, "Drivers should plan ahead .and rest before starting a long journey, besides, they can take regular breaks to recharge their batteries while on road, in some cases, if they do feel too tired to concentrate on the roads, they could consider an alternative (可替代的) method of transport."

D. A quarter of UK drivers have driven while not concentrating.

While 17 percent stop to have a rest until they feel energetic again. Mr Havenhand added, "Drivers should plan ahead .and rest before starting a long journey, besides, they can take regular breaks to recharge their batteries while on road, in some cases, if they do feel too tired to concentrate on the roads, they could consider an alternative (可替代的) method of transport."
