Prevent Highway Hypnosis by Taking Breaks

Have you heard of "Highway Hypnosis"? This normally occurs when you've been driving for a few hours, and your brain will become foggy and zone out while you're driving. Of course, this is incredibly dangerous and could result in a collision if you're not careful. Because of this, you should do everything you can to prevent it - and one of the best ways to do that is to take frequent breaks.

If you can, you should also switch drivers every few hours. This gives you a chance to rest and recuperate before jumping back into the driving seat and continuing along the highway.
