New York Drowsy Driving Accident Lawyer

Serious fatigue can make someone a serious hazard on the road. A driver who has gotten too little sleep before getting behind the wheel is, in fact, as lethal a threat on the road as an intoxicated driver. When drivers know they’re too tired to stay awake or pay full attention to the task of driving, their vehicles can become destructive weapons.

Research shows effects of sleep deprivation on driving abilities

Recent research has proven that drivers who don’t get enough rest are vastly more likely to be involved in an accident than someone who has slept an appropriate amount. For example:

  • Drivers who got less than 7 hours’ sleep the night before were significantly more likely to be involved in a crash than those drivers who got more sleep
  • Drivers who got fewer than 5 or 6 hours’ sleep in the past 24 hours were nearly twice as likely to get in an accident than drivers who got 7 or more hours’ sleep
  • Drivers who had only slept 4 or 5 hours within the prior 24 hour period were as likely to be involved in a crash as someone who had a blood alcohol content of 0.08%, New York’s legal limit for intoxication.

If evidence such as eyewitness accounts, accident recreation reports, or physical evidence show that a driver was excessively fatigued at the time of a crash, then the victim can use this fact to prove the driver’s negligence in causing your injuries in an accident.
