Since it gets darker earlier now due to “falling back,” many of us will probably be traveling home in the dark after work. This time of year is regarded as one of the riskiest for driving because of the time difference and the reduced nighttime visibility. The National Safety Council found that fatal crashes are three times more likely to occur at night than during daylight hours due to reduced visibility.
Our bodies have natural clocks, so even if it is early, our bodies may interpret it as bedtime if it is dark outside, regardless of the time on a clock. The first few days traveling home after the time shift are the most difficult. The time shift coincides with Drowsy Driving Prevention Week, which takes place from November 3 to November 9, 2024.

Here are some essential tips for staying safe when driving in the dark, whether it be morning, afternoon, or night.
