Falling asleep behind the wheel of a car happens way to often resulting in an unnecessary number of deaths and injuries.  According to the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), approximately 100,000 police-reported crashes occur annually due to drowsiness and/or fatigue. Out of these reported crashes about 1,500 deaths, 71,000 injuries, and $12.5 billion in monetary loss occurs. If these statistics just scared you… they should have. Don’t become a number… there are safe options to help you stay awake and alert. When taking a long car ride people often try to limit the amount of fluids they consume to decrease the amount of stops they have to make.

Energy supplements, like Red BulletSpeed or the Energy Patch are the perfect solutions. With just a mouthful of water and one pill or a simple adhesive patch, fast-acting ingredients will have you alert and focused in no time.
