On very hot days, remember that the symptoms of tiredness or fatigue appear sooner and more easily, and drivers feel more irritable. To combat these symptoms, it is advisable to take more and longer breaks. The most important rules to avoid an accident caused by tiredness are: if you are tired, the best thing is to stop and rest in a suitable place and sleep for about 20 or 30 minutes; rest for 20 to 30 minutes every 2 hours or every 200 kilometres at most; always watch for the signs and symptoms of tiredness.
