Sneezing, back pain and snoring — the most dangerous health problems behind the wheel

A group of British scientists from Cardiff University, studied the statistics of road accidents that occurred on the roads of Albion due to various diseases in the drivers and made a rating of the most dangerous diseases at the wheel. The obtained results were quite unexpected, and at least two of the disease from the first three, few people would call.



Leader in the number of causes of accidents has become common cold. Or to be more precise, the process of sneezing. Statistics says that in all the time fixing the causes of accidents in the UK, this, in General, harmless process, was the precondition for the two million road accidents. Scientists attribute this to the fact that sneezing, a person involuntarily closes in the blink of an eye. But for the moment, the car rides of 15-20 meters. At high speed this distance is enough to produce a situation on the road out of control, and simply do not have time to react to new circumstances.

The second danger for driving disease, the researchers called back problems. At this point we are not talking about a specific reason, and their complex, often resulting in stiffness and sharp pain. At such moments, the strong reaction to a dangerous situation on the road is simply impossible, and even if there are ways to collision avoidance, to take the necessary maneuver, the driver may not. And if the driver is diagnosed intervertebral hernia, you should immediately resort to non-surgical treatment to avoid tragic consequences.





The third dangerous disease, became common snoring that indicates sleep disorders. Known in Britain automobile club RAC has published the results of its own studies showing that every fifth road accident in the country occurs due to lack of sleep.Scientists from Cardiff University claim that not enough sleep, in the morning, the driver observed a significant decrease in the level of concentration, and stay in that condition driving a car is dangerous not only for driver but also for others.
