Rest Before You Become Too Exhausted

The mind needs time to rest and recover. However, there is something critically important to know - the more exhausted you let yourself get, the less efficient your recovery time will be. If you learn to take short naps when you're getting tired instead of pushing through to exhaustion, you'll feel far more awake and energetic. If you learn to park early for the night to get a good night's sleep when you're feeling tired and get up earlier to stay on schedule, you'll feel far more awake and energetic. When you push your mind to exhaustion you're going to need a lot more recovery time. Often times you won't fully recover even with a good night's sleep. The next day you'll still feel groggy and worn out. It can take two good nights of sleep to fully recover from being extremely tired.

Obviously there's a huge safety factor here too. You're incredibly dangerous when you're driving tired. Someone who has been up 24 straight hours has the same driving skills as someone who is legally drunk - it's been proven through scientific testing. So stop before you get too exhausted and rest. You will feel more energetic and be a safer driver with fewer hours of sleep if you sleep when you're a little tired instead of pushing through to exhaustion.


Tip for New Truck Drivers

3. Never refuse a load:  Refusing a load can leave a bad image of you and your work ethic. By not refusing a load you show the company that you are valuable and dedicated and will help the company when needed and besides you just never know what kind of load is waiting for you when you get where your going (it might be a 3000 mile load, you never know)
