Fatigue, Breakdown and Passenger Emergencies
Recognize deteriorating performance and protect people during abnormal events.
Fatigue is a safety failure
Yawning, wandering attention and missed information are warning signs. Stop at a safe location and take proper rest rather than relying on stimulants.
Manage a breakdown
Move away from traffic when possible, apply parking controls, use hazard lights and place warning devices according to safe procedure.
Protect passengers
Explain what is happening, keep passengers away from traffic and evacuate only when remaining onboard creates greater danger.
