((( ICOR ))) Bringing awareness to the growing epidemic of ********************DROWSY DRIVING************************* Intercore Inc Has The Solution / Has The Technology According to the NTSB Published on Oct 21, 2014 The National Transportation Safety Board is ringing an alarm over drowsy driving. Safety officials believe its just as big of a threat as drunk driving. Jeff Pegues looks at how this deadly problem affects nearly all Americans. Referred to as the silent killer because it is so often overlooked as the cause of an accident, drowsy drivings full effect is not yet known because reporting is imprecise, police are not trained to detect sleep-related crashes and there is no Breathalyzer-like test to determine whether someone was driving while dangerously drowsy. Driving while drowsy or fatigued is something that most drivers have experienced or will experience at some point, said Greg Ciezadlo, vice president, Farmers Insurance,We need to raise the awareness of this problem and educate drivers on how to prevent it from happening. https://youtube/watch?v=-RT8HK9N7mA https://facebook/icorotcqb icorinc/ It is amazing the carnage isnt worse, considering a recent survey by Farmers Insurance. More than 10 percent of drivers admit to having fallen asleep at the wheel, while more than 20 percent say they have momentarily dozed while driving, according to the study of 1,024 drivers. According to the Farmers survey, almost three times as many men (15.9 percent) as women (5.8 percent) said they had fallen asleep while driving. Those ages 55 to 64 had the highest percentage of any age group surveyed (13.7 percent). Nearly twice as many (20.6 percent) of those surveyed said they had momentarily dozed while driving, including 28.6 percent of the male respondents. In addition, while 53.4 percent of all surveyed said they have felt drowsy while driving, 41.2 percent claimed they kept driving. (Hey, good idea.)
