My wife was in a car accident and suffered some injuries. Even though the driver had admitted fault, it was a very stressful situation for us. Working with Abel Law Firm was the best decision we could have possibly made. Luke was very professional, and best of all he eased our worries throughout the process. I would highly recommend using Abel Law Firm to anyone that was in need.
How to Prevent Driver Fatigue
Almost every driver has felt a little tired behind the wheel, especially when driving long distances. Driver fatigue is a major threat to motorists and can potentially cause a serious accident. By taking action to prevent falling asleep at the wheel and staying aware of this problem, you may be able to minimize this danger when you hit the road.
There are roughly 10,000 car accidents caused by fatigued driving every year across the United States. If you or someone you know has been injured in a car, or truck accident because of a driver who failed to stay alert at the wheel, you may be eligible for financial compensation.

Battling Driver Fatigue
Whether you are going on a lengthy road trip across multiple states or just driving home from work, driver fatigue may be a risk. Fortunately, you can be proactive to fight the possibility of falling asleep at the wheel by:
- Go to bed early the night before a long trip so you can rest up
- Travel with someone else so you can share the driving responsibilities
- Do not drink large amounts of caffeine
- Avoid heavy meals while on the road
- Pull over and walk around if you get tired
Despite your own efforts to remain safe, others may still put you and your loved ones in danger.
