Default Falling Asleep While Driving Admitted To By One In Ten BritishMotorists

More than three million British drivers have fallen asleep behind the
wheel in the last year, according to new research.

Almost one in 10 (3.4 million) of the UK’s more than 38 million
motorists “nodded off” while driving, a survey for LV= car insurance
firm found.

It contributed to at least 3,357 fatigue-related accidents which have
been recorded over the past five years, according to official police
figures obtained by the company.

Were they carrying their bikes in those silly roof-top bike-stand things?
